<div dir="ltr">New series — Language Contexts<br><br>EL Publishing is introducing a new article series that will appear in the journal Language Documentation and Description called 'Language Contexts'.<br><br>Language Contexts focuses on the contexts in which a language or variety is spoken, providing social and cultural information that complements other linguistically-focused sources (such as Ethnologue or Glottolog). Articles will include information about the speaker population, social organisation, cultural aspects, linguistic ecology (including multilingualism and factors influencing language choice), language vitality, and language use and transmission in the community, diaspora and cyberspace. Articles are expected to normally be 5,000-7,000 words and we strongly encourage the inclusion of images, maps and other illustrative material, especially links to online resources and material available in repositories or archives. It is also possible to include media samples (audio, video clips). <div><br></div><div>For more details please see <a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/0RmEBkHgqO6kFd?domain=el-blog.org">http://www.el-blog.org/el-publishing-new-article-series-language-contexts/</a> and <a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/wxnKB8FLQwX3fA?domain=elpublishing.org">http://www.elpublishing.org/language-contexts</a> or contact the editors at <a href="mailto:elpublishing2017@gmail.com">elpublishing2017@gmail.com</a>.<br> </div><div>Peter Austin</div><div><br></div><div>(for Peter Austin and Lauren Gawne, Editors, Language Contexts)<br> <div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Prof Peter K.
