Literary History was launched in 1968 as a journal of the Cetinje publishing house "Obod" and later "Vuk Karadžić". Its founder and first editor-in-chief was Aleksandar Petrov, followed by Jovan Deretić. The journal has always relied on the collaboration of associates from the research projects of the Institute for Literature and Arts. Since 1991, Literary History has become the Institute's organ. Today, Literary History represents one of the leading scientific journals in Serbia, open to all authors from the country, region, and abroad, whose works pass a carefully elaborated system of editorial and anonymous peer review. In this way, the international editorial board of the journal strives to raise the quality of published articles in each new issue and establish precise criteria and a high standard of academic writing and scientific research. With the intention of further improving the quality of offered texts and contributions, the editorial board of Literary History has, along with already established, partially renewed sections (Studies, Essays, Contributions; Glossary; Reviews, Notes), devised new sections within which special attention will be paid to publishing thematic blocks and problem-oriented texts. Reading Tradition and Heritage of Modernism are intended for contemporary insights into the literary heritage of previous centuries, i.e., the recapitulation of the literarily diverse and in some ways still "living" twentieth century, while Contexts will publish selected works of comparative, intercultural, and multimedia approaches. The section titled In Focus is reserved for scientific discussion on issues and problems of particular importance for the scientific, but also the wider cultural public.
