Wed Sep 27 18:40:47 GMT 2017





*New /Journal of Corpora and Discourse Studies/ announced*

Cardiff University Press has announced the forthcoming publication of the /Journal of Corpora and Discourse Studies/ (JCaDS), a new peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to the computer-assisted study of language in use as a vehicle of communication. Edited by an international team of scholars led by Professor Alan Partington of the University of Bologna (Italy), /JCaDS/ breaks new ground as the first linguistics journal to fully embrace the principles of open science, offering not only open access to the journal's articles but also open data that can be reanalysed and reused. In addition to original empirical research, /JCaDS/ will publish reviews of books, software tools and corpora.


    Call for contributions

/*JCaDS would like to invite contributions for its first issue, due to appear in summer 2018*/

The journal will consider original research articles using corpus techniques for the systematic examination of naturally-occurring language in specific settings and contexts.

Aspects and areas of interest include but are not limited to applied linguistics; pragmatics; psycholinguistics; semantics; sociolinguistics; stylistics; translation; cohesion; conversation; evaluation; lexical priming; lexicogrammar; politeness; (cross-)cultural studies; discourse approaches to the study of business and organisations, education, healthcare, history, law, the media, politics, the professions, and sexuality and gender; and the digital humanities and social sciences. We welcome work from any disciplinary standpoint.

The language of publication is English, but we welcome submissions working on any language. Original manuscripts should be no longer than 9,000 words. For further guidance please visit https://publications.cardiffuniversitypress.org/index.php/JCaDS/about/submissions.
