Description
Announcing...
We are
pleased to announce that a new electronic submission and handling system, EES, has been implemented for the Journal of Pragmatics.
This 'Elsevier Editorial System' is a web-based system with full online submission, review and status update capabilities. EES allows
you to upload files directly from your computer. We strongly encourage all authors to use EES at the following URL when submitting papers
to the journal: http://ees.elsevier.com/pragma/ (First time users
will need to register).
Linguistic pragmatics has been able to formulate a number of questions over the years
that are essential to our understanding of language as people's main instrument of "natural" and "societal" interaction. By providing
possible theoretical foundations for the study of linguistic practice, linguistic pragmatics has helped to increase our knowledge of
the forms, functions, and foundations, of human interaction. The Journal of Pragmatics identifies with the above general scope
and aims of pragmatics. The journal welcomes authoritative, innovative pragmatic scholarship from all practice oriented linguistic standpoints.
It provides a forum for pragmatic studies in sociolinguistics, general linguistics, conversation analysis, discourse analysis, cognitive
linguistics, computational linguistics, applied linguistics and other areas of linguistic research. In addition, it endeavors to narrow
the distance between linguistics and such neighbouring disciplines as communication science (including the study of face-to-face interaction
and nonverbal communication), information science (including artificial intelligence research and, in general, the theory and practice
of machine-human interaction), psychiatry (including the study of schizophrenic speech), and neuropsychology (including the study of
speaking and reading disorders). The journal welcomes both those contributions originating in linguistics proper, and those taking neighboring,
related fields as their point of departure.
The Journal of Pragmatics publishes focus-on-issues on broad subject areas of
general interest to different groups of readers e.g., Pragmatics of Discourse (2004), Corpus Linguistics (2004), Speech Acts (2004).
"Special Issues" devoted to a single topic are regularly published. Some of the recent Special issues include: Metaphor (2004),
Polygue (2004), Developing Discourse Stance Across Adolescence (2005), Conventional Code-Switching (2005), Discourse Markers (2005).
