Pattern Theory in Language and Communication

Call for chapter proposals for an edited volume

Editors: Sabine Arndt-Lappe, Milena Belosevic, Peter Maurer, Claudine Moulin,
Achim Rettinger and Sören Stumpf

The volume Pattern Theory in Language and Communication will provide a
state-of-the-art overview of interdisciplinary perspectives on the nature of
patterns in language and communication. In contrast to the terms that come
with underlying assumptions about which forces produce pertinent patterns or
focus on phenomena that cut across and are, therefore, not compatible with
established categories (e.g. ‘rules’, ‘schemata’, ‘frames’, ‘topics ‘,
‘style‘), we define ‘pattern’ as empirical surface phenomena that are
identified by researchers in language usage and communication. Putting
‘pattern’ at centre stage, we focus on a strictly empirical, data-driven, and,
hence, methodological perspective. The central aim of this book, then, is to
lay out and discuss the empirical foundations of research on patterns in
language and communication. The volume seeks to bring together different
linguistic disciplines and communication and media studies (cf. for further
details: https://patterns.uni-trier.de/2237/?lang=en).

Organisation

We will adopt an innovative publication format. The book will be published as
an Open Access volume with an internationally visible, high-quality publisher.
We are envisaging doing the publication with Heidelberg University Publishing
(https://heiup.uni-heidelberg.de/?lang=en), a genuine open-access publisher,
who have already expressed an interest in the project. Each contribution will
be peer-reviewed by at least one external and one internal reviewer. At least
one review will represent a perspective from a different research community.
Reviews will be double-blind in the first round. Upon acceptance of the
contribution, however, reviewers will be invited to publish a short commentary
on the basis of their review, which will be published together with the
article under their name. This way, we hope that both the process of making
the book as well as the book itself will foster dialogue among participating
researchers and research communities.

Invitation for contributions 

We invite researchers interested in contributing to submit a short abstract
(300 words max., excluding references) in PDF format on our EasyChair
platform: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ptlc21. Please also provide
the section of the volume (cf. above) in which you would like to see your
article, and five keywords.

Deadline for the submission of abstracts: September 15, 2021
Notification of acceptance: October 01, 2021
Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to submit a full manuscript
until March 31, 2022. Decisions on the final acceptance of manuscripts will be
based on the outcome of the peer review process.
