Original Article
Original research articles are the most common type of journal article. They’re detailed studies reporting new work and are classified as primary literature.
You may find them referred to as original articles, research articles, research, or even just articles, depending on the journal.
Theoretical Article
Like research articles, theoretical articles are usually peer-reviewed before they are published in academic and scientific journals. Still, they do not require or report empirical research of the kind presented in original research articles.
Established theories are often introduced, described, analyzed, and compared. The author uses them to develop and present their own new theory about a problem, question, behavior, situation, event, or anything else worthy of reflection and discussion.
The application of theories to real-life situations, events, and processes can be part of the point of publishing theoretical articles. University instructors often ask students to apply (or imagine applying) the theories they discuss in their papers as a test of sorts to determine how well they understand the material taught in a course and its practical implications. Papers in philosophy, literature, psychology, anthropology and other social sciences are frequently theoretical in nature. Still, scientific articles can be as well – cosmology comes to mind, for instance, as a branch of scientific study that is highly theoretical in nature. The language, vocabulary, and argumentation used in a theoretical article must usually be of a superior quality to earn publication.
Your theoretical article will be peer-reviewed.
Translation
What kind of Translation of another Article can be published?
When you translate a document from one language to another, your translation is called a “derivative work.” If you want to publish or post it online, you MUST get the original author’s permission. He can say “no.” He can demand a fee of any amount he chooses and other restrictions subject to a contract between the both of you. He may be generous and say sure, no problem, mention my name as the original author.
If you get the original author’s permission to publish your work, YOUR translation will also be automatically protected by your own copyright.
If a third person wanted to translate your translation into yet another language, that person would need both your permission and the original author’s permission.
The current period of copyright for works created after January 1, 1978, is the author's life plus 70 years. For works created between 1923 and 1978, the rules are rather complex. However, all works created before January 1, 1923, are in the public domain and can be freely copied or translated without anyone’s permission.
Therefore, if the translated article is in the public domain, it can be freely copied or translated without permission, and it can be published after the review of the Editorial Board.
