This paper discusses the importance of treating journals as an independent research topic and proposes a new way of thinking about them as relational objects that influence and are influenced by texts. It suggests considering journals and texts as a whole.
In recent years, journals have increasingly become a research topic intheir own right. Trying to avoid the rigid functional definitions of journals (peri-odicity, publicity, etc.), it is a major challenge at the moment for literary studies tocome up with a new and more appropriate way of thinking about the subject. Thispaper contributes to this endeavour by proposing to think about journals not asfixed items but as relational objects that not only have an impact on the texts butare affected by them as well. Thus, it suggests not to talk about journals and textsindividually but to recognize the specific media formatting that they form together
