NOWELE. North-Western European Language Evolution
More LessNOWELE: North-Western European Language Evolution is an interdisciplinary journal devoted not only to the study of the early and more recent history of a locally determined group of languages, but also to the study of purely theoretical questions concerning language development. NOWELE welcomes submissions dealing with all aspects of the histories of – and with intra- and extra-linguistic factors contributing to change and variation within – Icelandic, Faroese, Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, Frisian, Dutch, German, English, Gothic and the Early Runic language. Accordingly, studies involving past and present neighbouring languages such as Celtic, Finnish, Lithuanian, Russian and French, in so far as these have played and are playing a role in the development or present status of north-western European languages through contact, will be accepted. NOWELE accepts, after peer review, papers within the outlined framework analyses based on classical philological principles, studies of a minute detail, be it a socio-historical phenomenon or a theoretical concept, as well as analyses dealing with a larger group of phenomena or with the problems which a theory may present. NOWELE welcomes review articles.

Pedagogical Linguistics
More LessPedagogical Linguistics publishes work on educational applications of theoretical and descriptive linguistics. The general aim of the journal is to bring the formal and the functional strands of linguistics together in order to establish a forum where they can cross-fertilize each other with the aim of discussing and developing linguistics' potential contribution to language pedagogy. Pedagogical Linguistics publishes research originating in theoretical linguistics, psycholinguistics, and linguistic approaches to acquisition which outlines the didactic and educational relevance of recent research findings. The primary audience for this journal are researchers interested in state-of-the-art approaches to questions of language acquisition and linguistic theory that find applications in pedagogy, as well as a more general audience whose training is in education and pedagogy.

Pragmatics
More LessPragmatics is the peer-reviewed quarterly journal of the International Pragmatics Association (IPrA), which was established in 1986 to represent the field of linguistic pragmatics, broadly conceived as the interdisciplinary (cognitive, social, cultural) science of language use. Its goal is to reflect the diversity of topics, applications, methods and approaches available within this wide field, and thus to contribute to IPrA’s foundational aim of searching for coherence across different perspectives and of bridging any gaps between the field’s practitioners, whether their background is linguistic, anthropological, sociological, psychological, computational, etc.
Pragmatics issues are made available online as free content under a CC BY-NC license, after a 12-month embargo period.
Members of the International Pragmatics Association (IPrA) always have access to the online version by logging in with their user name and password at the IPrA website ( https://ipra.uantwerpen.be).

Pragmatics & Cognition
More LessPragmatics & Cognition is an interdisciplinary journal seeking to bring together such disciplines as linguistics, semiotics, cognitive science, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, philosophy, ethology, and cognitive anthropology, among others.
The journal seeks to explore relations of all sorts between semiotic systems as used by humans, as well as animals and machines, in connection with mental activities: meaning in context and its cognitive and neurological substrates; condition of acquisition of communicative abilities, development of loss; modeling, simulation of formalization; shared or separate biological and neurological bases; social and cultural variation; historical development; etc.
Pragmatics & Cognition’s basic assumption is that the proper understanding of communication, mental activity and interpersonal relations requires an intensive and thoughtful exchange of views across disciplines.

Pragmatics and Society
More LessPragmatics and Society puts the spotlight on societal aspects of language use, while incorporating many other facets of society-oriented pragmatic studies. It brings together a variety of approaches to the study of language in context, inspired by different research perspectives and drawing on various disciplines, for instance, sociology, psychology, developmental and cognitive science, anthropology, media research, and computer-related social studies. It is concerned with how language use and social normativity influence and shape each other, for instance, in education (the teaching and acquisition of first and second languages), in political discourse (with its manipulative language use), in the discourse of business and the workplace, and in all kinds of discriminatory uses of language (gender- and class-based or other). Finally, it pays special attention to the impact that our increased dependency on the computer is having on communication and interaction (especially as seen in the social media), as well as to the role of pragmatics in guiding social and racial emancipatory developments.

Study Abroad Research in Second Language Acquisition and International Education
More LessReflecting the growth of international exchange programmes in an educational context, Study Abroad Research in Second Language Acquisition and International Education has as its focus the role of study abroad in language learning and educational development. In the area of language learning, articles explore all facets of second language acquisition during study abroad such as the nature of linguistic development, input engagement and interaction, and the role of contextual, social and socio-biographical factors underpinning the learner’s experience abroad. The journal also explores issues beyond the linguistic, such as the relationship between study abroad and academic, professional, personal and social development. A complementary area of focus is educational policy and planning issues in study abroad exchange programmes within international education.
