Produced under the auspices of the Slavic Department at
Columbia University,
ULBANDUS, The Slavic Review of Columbia University is a peer-reviewed journal
devoted to refreshing, adventurous, and provocative work on topics in
Slavic literatures and cultures. Each issue is devoted to a topic or theme chosen by the editorial board and announced in a Call for Submissions in the late fall. We welcome submissions from faculty,
graduate students and independent scholars in any field, even superficially
unrelated ones. Though faculty members sit on the advisory board, the
production, editing, and management of
ULBANDUS is carried out
entirely by the graduate students in the Columbia Slavic Department.
