Subject: Proposals: New Waves in Pragmatics (Routledge)

 
We are pleased to announce the launch of a new book series with Routledge,
titled Routledge Research on New Waves in Pragmatics, edited by István Kecskés
(State University of New York, Albany, USA) and Monika Kirner-Ludwig
(University of Innsbruck, Austria). 
This book series is an initiative of the American Pragmatics Association
(AMPRA) and aims at producing volumes that present the latest trends and lines
of research in the field of pragmatics by early-career scholars who have
completed their thesis no more than five years prior to the submission of
their proposal.
 
The proposal can be based on their thesis or any other research topic that
fits into the scope of the series. Our endeavor is to give a publication
opportunity to excellent emerging scholars from all over the world. The book
series will publish both monographs and edited volumes that reflect new
developments in the field. The editorial board members and reviewers coming
from all over the world will ensure an appropriate and consistent quality
control of contributions. We would like to emphasize that the series is
affiliated with AMPRA but is not in any way restricted to AMPRA members, and
conference participants. This is an international book series that aims to
support early-career scholars and the development of the field.

There are three important principles that our book series will rely on: First,
the editors and the editorial board will make every effort to select works
that reflect the diversity of the field that includes but is not restricted to
linguistic pragmatics, cognitive pragmatics, philosophical pragmatics,
intercultural pragmatics, sociocultural pragmatics, corpus pragmatics,
interlanguage pragmatics, interactional pragmatics and internet pragmatics.
Second, pragmatics is amongst the fastest growing fields of linguistics with
researchers in all parts of the world. The series should reflect this type of
diversity as well. The editors and the board will make an effort to involve
scholars from all over the world, if their work meets the quality requirements
of the series. Third, special attention will be given to new ways of thinking
in the field – even if they have not been fully worked out yet. Proposals of
this kind to the book series will be supported by the editorial board members
so to emphasize and restructure the presented contents and lines of argument
in an appropriate manner.

We invite early-career scholars – i.e. scholars who have completed their PhD
thesis no more than five years ago – to submit proposals or full manuscripts
of their monographs (i.e. based on their thesis defended within the previous
5-years or other scholarly work) for double-blind review to Dr. Monika
Kirner-Ludwig: Monika.Kirner-Ludwig at uibk.ac.at. 

Information may also be found on the AMPRA website:
https://americanpragmaticsassociation.org

Requirements for proposals (please submit each one in an individual document):
- a summary (ca. 2 pages) of the project, highlighting innovative aspects and
citing the relevant literature used
- a description of included chapters (10-15 sentences/each with as many
specifics as possible);
- a list of references (no page limit; all references cited must be included
fully) 
- a short bio of author;
- confirmation of PhD defense (with date)
