Polyglossia

Polyglossia is a research journal of English Studies, edited and judged by members of the Lambda Delta (ISU) chapter of Sigma Tau Delta, the international English honor society. All English majors and minors are welcome to submit essays. Polyglossia is published twice a year. The fall issue features essays in English Studies by undergraduate students and the Spring issue features essays written by graduate students.

The first undergraduate volume of Polyglossia was published in fall 1997; the first graduate volume in spring 2006. The title comes from a quotation by the Russian theorist M.M. Bakhtin, "The world becomes polyglot, once and for all and irreversibly. . . Languages throw light on each other: one language can, after all, see itself only in the light of another language."
