About the Journal

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

Founded in 1978 by Pedro Sainz Rodríguez (†) and Amancio Labandeira Fernández as a publication of the Seminario "Menéndez Pelayo" de Literatura of the Fundación Universitaria Española (FUE) publishing house (CIF: G-28433670), the Cuadernos para la Investigación de la Literatura Hispánica are published uninterruptedly on an annual basis. Exceptionally, the journal may publish two issues in the same year. Throughout its history, the CILH have hosted works of Spanish and Latin American literature. In this second period (from issue 46, year 2020), the journal intends to continue this trajectory, while placing itself in the main impact indexes. The academic and, at the same time, political aspect of Pedro Sainz Rodriguez (1897-1986), and the fact that he was a prominent member of Hispanic cultural life during the twentieth century, has left an important legacy in the archive of the FUE, where documents and letters that the journal has begun to publish are preserved. Likewise, the activities of the “Poetry classroom” and the Ménendez Pelayo Seminar guarantee a privileged environment for the debate around Hispanic literature that enrich the journal and keep alive the contact with researchers and authors. In addition, the journal receives articles for the monographic section, as well as for the miscellaneous one, sent by external researchers of Spanish and Latin American literature from different international institutions, according to the following structure:

  1. Monographic articles
  2. Miscellaneous articles
  3. FUE papers
