The Department of English publishes SGGSWU-International Journal of English Studies. English Studies today represents a vast and continually evolving field that engages with diverse disciplines such as philosophy, sociology, cultural theory, gender studies, media studies, and the environmental humanities. The SGGSWU-International Journal of English Studies (SGGSWU-IJES) seeks to meaningfully contribute to this dynamic intellectual landscape by publishing scholarship that embodies both the plurality and transformation of twenty-first-century thought. Recognizing that the study of English language and literature now extends far beyond textual analysis, the journal embraces critical engagements with power, identity, ethics, pedagogy, ecology, and technology. It endeavors to bridge traditional humanistic inquiry with contemporary interdisciplinary paradigms, drawing upon frameworks such as digital humanities, postcolonial theory, and decolonial thought while remaining rooted in the ethical and philosophical insights of the Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS). Through this synthesis, the Department promotes scholarship that reflects the dialogic interplay between Eastern and Western epistemologies, emphasizing interconnectedness, compassion, and reflective reasoning. The Department recognizes the relevance of Indic traditions—such as the ethical humanism of Gurbani, the ecological consciousness of ancient Indian thought, and the pedagogical spirit of Gurmat—in reshaping contemporary critical inquiry.
