Aims and Scope

The Lighthouse Journal of Literature and Linguistics (LJLL) is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes original and high-quality research papers in all areas of linguistics and literature. As an important academic exchange platform, scientists and researchers can know the most up-to-date academic trends and seek valuable primary sources for reference.

Peer Review Process

The Lighthouse Journal of Literature & Linguistics has a rigorous peer review system. It ensures the quality of the research papers. The peer reviewer is responsible for critically reading and evaluating a manuscript in their specialized field, and then providing feedback to authors about their submission. All papers undergo a Blind Peer Review process, which ensures that the reviewers and authors both remain anonymous to each other throughout the process. It enables authors to improve their manuscripts and help editors in making a decision on manuscripts. The Associate Editor, based on the reviewers’ recommendations, makes one of the following decisions:

Paper accepted in its current state

Paper Accepted after Minor revisions

Paper Accepted after Major revision

Rejected

 Authors who receive suggestions for major or minor changes are required to follow the advice of the reviewers and editors. All re-submissions must include a clear account of how the authors responded to the reviewers’ remarks and incorporated the same into the revised paper.
