The journal English Language and Linguistics (ELL) publishes up to two special issues each year, and we would now like to invite proposals for special issues to be published in 2028 and 2029. Special issues should be focused on a specific topic which is of key interest to specialists in the various sub-disciplines of English linguistics. The topics and contents of past special issues can be consulted by viewing back issues on the ELL website: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/english

Call for Papers: Die Tagung widmet sich dem spannungsvollen Dialog zwischen Pragmatik und Computerlinguistik, der durch den rapiden Fortschritt von Large Language Models (LLMs) neu entfacht wurde. Im Fokus stehen die Grenzen und Gemeinsamkeiten von menschlicher und maschineller Kommunikation, von der Modellierung pragmatischer Phänomene in KI-Architekturen bis hin zur Analyse neuer Interaktionspraktiken (z.B. Prompting). Keynotes: Tatjana Scheffler (Bochum) und David Schlangen (Potsdam)

Call for Papers: Convenors: Sabine Arndt-Lappe (Trier) Barbara Schlücker (FU Berlin) Complex words are produced, understood, and also coined in context, and a by now large, but diverse body of literature has explored different facets of the role of context. By ‘context’ we mean the linguistic context, both immediate (e.g. preceding and following words) and with a larger scope (e.g. text types), and the extralinguistic context such as the speaker and the listener or the situation of speak

Asking a question means, essentially, presenting the hearer with a set of propositions with the request that she choose from it those that are true. It is a well-known fact about natural language that questions can be "biased": the propositions presented are not all equal, so to speak. For example, the speaker's belief, or contextual evidence, might favor some against others. The formal means employed by grammar to express such biases have been of interest to linguists for a long time, and the i

Decentring the growing field of ecolinguistics from its historically Western orientation, this open access book offers a comprehensive exploration of the intricate relationship between language and the environment in the Global South. It brings forward new perspectives and voices to broaden our understanding of the role of language in addressing ecological challenges. Through a series of thought-provoking chapters, the book navigates through various dimensions of ecolinguistics, shedding l

It draws on the work of scholars from diverse geographical areas and academic fields, with a particular emphasis on Orthodox and Catholic Christianity and Slavic scholarship. The volume explores Christian experiential identities through hermeneutics and phenomenology, in the context of diversity across denomination
