Subject: Linguistic Variation Journal Increasing Page Count

 
John Benjamins Publishing is pleased to announce that as of Volume 17 (2017),
the journal Linguistic Variation will increase in page count from 300 pages to
375 pages.

Linguistic Variation (LV) is an international, peer-reviewed journal that
focuses on the theoretical study of linguistic variation. It seeks to
investigate to what extent the study of linguistic variation can shed light on
the broader issue of language-particular versus language-universal properties,
on the interaction between what is fixed and necessary on the one hand and
what is variable and contingent on the other. This enterprise involves
properly defining and delineating the notion of linguistic variation,
identifying possible loci of variation, investigating what the variable
properties of natural language reveal about its underlying invariant core, and
conversely, exploring the range and type of variation that arises from the
interaction between several invariant principles.

Empirically, these issues can be investigated on the level of both intra- and
interlinguistic differences, of closely related languages (microvariation,
dialectology) and larger typological groups (macrovariation). Theoretically,
these questions can be addressed from the point of view of syntax, morphology,
phonology, phonetics, acquisition, psycholinguistics and semantics.

Linguistic Variation aims to provide a forum for the discussion of these and
related topics. It welcomes both empirically and theoretically oriented papers
that further our understanding of linguistic variation by relating patterns of
variation to the organization of the language faculty.

This journal is peer reviewed and indexed in: Language Abstracts, Linguistic
Bibliography/Bibliographie Linguistique, LLBA, ERIH Plus.
