Description
The journal is devoted to the problems of general linguistics. Its aim is to present work of current interest
in all areas of linguistics. Contributions are required to contain such general theoretical implications as to be of interest to any
linguist, whatever their own specialisation.
No particular linguistic theories or scientific trends are favoured: scientific quality
and scholarly standing are the only criteria applied in the selection of papers accepted for publication.
Lingua publishes
papers of any length, if justified, as well as review articles surveying developments in the various fields of linguistics, and occasional
discussions. A considerable number of pages in each issue are devoted to critical book reviews. Lingua also publishes Lingua
Franca articles consisting of provocative exchanges expressing strong opinions on central topics in linguistics; The Decade
In articles which are educational articles offering the nonspecialist linguist an overview of a given area of study; and Taking
up the Gauntlet special issues composed of a set number of papers examining one set of data and exploring whose theory offers the
most insight with a minimal set of assumptions and a maximum of arguments. Lingua also publishes themed special issues and has
the facility to publish supplementary material online, for example, audio and video files.
A substantial part of the royalties for Lingua support the Lingua Scholarship, a graduate student position at the institution of the Executive Editor. This
graduate student provides administrative assitance to Lingua during the preparation of his/her doctoral thesis.
