John Benjamins is pleased to announce that as of volume 10 (2020) former
Associate Editor Aletta G. Dorst (Leiden University) will succeed Graham Low
(University of York) as editor of the journal Metaphor and the Social World.
Graham Low will remain on the board as Founding Editor. Dennis Tay (The Hong
Kong Polytechnic University) will take on the role as Associate Editor.

The journal Metaphor and the Social World aims to provide a forum for
researchers to share with each other, and with potential research users, work
that explores aspects of metaphor and the social world. The term “social
world” signals the importance given to context (of metaphor use), to
connections (e.g. across social, cognitive and discourse dimensions of
metaphor use), and to communication (between individuals or across social
groups). The journal is not restricted to a single disciplinary or theoretical
framework but welcomes papers based in a range of theoretical approaches to
metaphor, including discourse and cognitive linguistic approaches, provided
that the theory adequately supports the empirical work. Metaphor may be dealt
with as either a matter of language or of thought, or of both; what matters is
that consideration is given to the social and discourse contexts in which
metaphor is found. Furthermore, “metaphor” is broadly interpreted and articles
are welcomed on metonymy and other types of figurative language. A further aim
is to encourage the development of high-quality research methodology using
metaphor as an investigative tool, and for investigating the nature of
metaphor use, for example multi-modal discourse analytic or corpus linguistic
approaches to metaphor data. The journal publishes various types of articles,
including reports of empirical studies, key articles accompanied by short
responses, reviews and meta-analyses with commentaries. The Forum section
publishes short responses to papers or current issues.
