Linguistic Field(s): Linguistic Theories 

Call Deadline: 31-Jan-2011 

Thematic Issue: Emergent Constructions - Construction Grammar and 
Grammaticalization.

Abstract: Given the growing interest of both Brazilian and foreign researchers 
in the correlation between grammaticalization and construction grammar 
studies, the proposal for this thematic volume aims at stimulating the debate 
on this new research field by the proposition of some main questions which 
must be addressed by any research in this area. Hence, we will looking 
forward to receive paper from linguists who are interested in 
grammaticalization of constructions and whose work answers all or some of 
the following questions: (a) how the term 'construction' may be defined in 
such an approach; (b) how the term 'grammaticalization' may be understood 
in such an approach; (c) whether it is possible to consider grammaticalization 
as a unidirectional linear process, organized in clines; and (d) how to bring 
together the notion of the radial organization of grammar and the 
grammaticalization paradigm.
