About the Journal

Sabita is the online journal in which we present a collection of research-oriented studies on areas within the broad spectrum of Humanities. সবিতা/ Sabita, which means ‘the sun’, and by implication, ‘giver of life’, is derived from সবিতৃ/ Sabitry which means ‘one who brings to birth’. As the ‘sun’, Sabita is the source of enlightenment, that leads to truth and wisdom, and as ‘giver of life’, symbolises the creative principle.

We hope to have enshrined these twin ideas in this new venture, in pursuance of which we invite academics, researchers, students, and anyone interested in the field of Humanities to contribute to the journal.

Categories of articles proposed for publication in Sabita include

  • Research- and review-based articles
  • Commentaries
  • Letters to the editor
