History

The

first launched ''Indian Literature'' in 1957 as an annual publication in English. In an editorial note published in the first issue, in October 1957, the editors noted that since the inception of the Sahitya Akademi in March 1954, there had been demands at every General Council meeting that a journal should be established to disseminate information about literary developments in India. The purpose of ''Indian Literature,'' therefore, was initially established as a platform to help Indian writers and readers to become better acquainted with new literary works, particularly in translating and making accessible works of Indian literature. The editorial note also recorded that ''Indian Literature'' would document the work of the Sahitya Akademi. At the time of its launch, an annual subscription to ''Indian Literature'' cost Rs. 2.5. The first editorial board of the journal consisted of three members; S. Radhakrishnan, the first vice-president of India, politician and author,

. Previous editors include A. J. Thomas, K. Satchidanandan, and H.S. Shivaprakash. Issues of ''Indian Literature'' did not initially contain editorials, although from 1973, Keshav Malik began his tenure as editor with a prefatory note to each issue, containing general reflections on the state of Indian literature. In 1974, S. Balu Rao took over as editor from Keshav Malik, and in an editorial note, redefined the scope of ''Indian Literature,'' focusing more on translations to and from Indian languages. Editorial notes from S. Balu Rao became a regular feature, introducing the contents of each issue, and all editors since have continued to introduce each issue with an editorial note. From 1959 ''Indian Literature'' was published bi-annually, instead of just annually, and from 1966 onwards, it became a quarterly publication. From 1979 onwards, it has been published on a bi-monthly basis. The journal completed its 50th year in 2007.

Contents and features

In addition to documenting the activities and publications of the Sahitya Akademi, ''Indian Literature'' also carries original works and translations of short fiction, poetry, plays, as well as literary criticism and reviews. In addition to Indian languages and literature, the journal periodically carries content about literature from other countries, as well as translations from foreign languages. From 1957 onwards, ''Indian Literature'' has featured a regular section titled, "A Review of Current Writing" which consisted of individual reports on new publications in multiple Indian languages. In 1965, this was renamed the "Annual Review of Indian Writing". Sections such as "Bengali Literature" or "Urdu Literature" note new books, poetry, and reviews published in those languages. Frequent features also included similar sections documenting developments in other forms of literature, such as "Indian Drama and Stage Today", which contained a review of plays in Indian languages. Another regular feature is 'Authors on their Books', featuring commentary and notes by authors on recent publications, particularly those that won Sahitya Akademi Awards. From 1985, ''Indian Literature'' introduced an annual feature titled, 'Indian Literature in English': a bibliography of translations from Indian languages as well as critical works on Indian literatures, to be published in the first issue of each year. From 1959 onwards, ''Indian Literature'' also began carrying reviews of books that had won
