    Dear reader,

    the current issue of SLOVO – Journal of Slavic Languages, Literatures and Culture is a truly special one. In addition to our usual format with research articles and essays, we are trying a new concept, namely including thematic clusters. This year it is a cluster entitled “Late Soviet and Post-Soviet Necro-Aesthetics” edited by Prof. Andrei Rogatchevski from Tromsø and our own Prof. Maria Engström. The cluster includes four research articles.

    In addition to the cluster on Necro-Aesthetics, there is a surprise – four articles, two essays and a number of short messages from colleagues that celebrate the 60th anniversary of a member of the Slovo advisory board, Andrei Rogatchevski. We congratulate Andrei and are grateful to our colleagues from Tromsø, Svetlana Sokolova, Yngvar Steinholt and Tore Nesset for putting together this wonderful collection of works.

    As always, we welcome articles and essays on a wide variety of topics related to Slavic linguistics, literature, culture, history and society. All research articles, no matter whether they are part of a thematic cluster or not, undergo a double-blind peer-reviewing process. Essays are less formal in style and do not go through the same reviewing process, instead, the editorial team decides whether an essay can be published in Slovo. We would like to thank all the authors and reviewers for their contributions. We invite proposals for thematic clusters for future issues of Slovo.

    Dear reader,

    In the current issue of SLOVO – Journal of Slavic Languages, Literatures and Culture the contributions cover a narrower range of topics than in the preceding issues. We would therefore like to take the opportunity to remind you that we welcome articles on a wide variety of topics related to Slavic linguistics, literature, culture, history and society. We are also open to suggestions for special issues of the journal.

    The present issue follows the structure introduced in the previous issues, with one section of scholarly papers, which undergo a double-blind peer-reviewing process, and one section of other materials: essays, book reviews, memoirs. We would like to thank all the authors and reviewers for their contributions.

    The editorial board has undergone changes during the past year. Jelena Spasenić, who has been a highly valued member of the editorial board for more than ten years, has decided to step down from her editorial duties. We would like to express our deep appreciation and gratitude for all her efforts over the years and wish her all the very best. At the same time, we are glad to welcome a new member, Pontus Lindgren Ciampi, for whom this issue is his first as editor.

    Dear reader,
    We are excited to release a new issue of the Journal of Slavic Languages, Literatures and Culture (SLOVO). As you will see in this current issue, the contributions cover a very wide variety of topics from machine learning and application in pedagogy, Bulgarian clitics, Russian byvalo to a comprehensive bibliography of Chekhov’s studies in Sweden, an essay on color terms, a commented translation of previously unpublished verse from Eugene Onegin, and three reviews of books of immediate interest.

    We are grateful to our authors and reviewers for their contributions and for adhering to their deadlines. We would like to remind you that while we welcome articles, essays, and reviews throughout the year, contributions received before summer have a higher chance of appearing in the pages of the first upcoming issue.
