Look at space in terms of scope, latitude, margin,
position, range, and location

Engage different kinds of narratives that can be
located in but not restricted to local, global,
(trans)national, institutional, digital/virtual,
media, performative, literary, domestic, religious,
political, cultural, social, ecological, and communal
spaces

The extended deadline for submission is December 15,

Translations should be 3,000-6,000 words, preceded by
a 1,200-1,500 word introduction contextualizing the

Sagar publishes innovative academic writing in the
humanities and social sciences of South Asia, as well
as critical translations. It was established in 1993
and is published annually by the South Asia Institute
at the University of Texas at Austin. Submissions for
our print issue are blindly evaluated by an editorial
board of advanced scholars in the field.

Sagar is listed on EBSCO databases, which are used
for academic research by tens of thousands of
institutions worldwide. This will substantially
enhance the visibility of articles published in the
journal.
