MLO is a peer-reviewed platform for the open access publication of research from the modern languages to a global audience. Focusing on interdisciplinarity across the modern languages and engagement with other fields from a modern languages perspective, MLO offers rigorous peer review pre-publication and post-publication interactivity, rapid turnaround from submission to publication, Gold Open Access under a CC-BY or CC-BY-NC licence, rewards for article reviewers, flexibility on article length from 3,000-15,000 words, and international dissemination under the imprimatur of a university press. Call for Papers (Early Career Researchers) LUP is currently offering an APC waiver for the best papers submitted from early career researchers. Papers will be judged by the MLO Section Editors.
