   Información general sobre la nueva revista Spanish in Context:

   'Spanish in Context': a new international peer-reviewed journal
published by John Benjamins (Amsterdam).

   The first issue of this biannual journal will be published in 2004
and we are currently inviting contributions in the areas of the journal
described below.

   Spanish in Context will publish original theoretical, empirical and
methodological studies into pragmatics and sociopragmatics,
variationist and interactional sociolinguistics, sociology of
language, discourse and conversation analysis, functional contextual
analyses, bilingualism, and a crosscultural and intercultural
communication with the aim of extending our knowledge of Spanish and
of these disciplines themselves.

   Also found in Spanish in Context will be articles on:

   - historical approaches to the contextual Spanish fields,
   - the pragmatics of translation and
   - areas of applied linguistics such as:
        - first and second language acquisition,
        - the teaching of Spanish, and
        - business communication.

   The journal will also be a home for corpus-based studies of an
interactional nature where specific instances of language use as
utterances in context are analysed. The studies will either focus on
one or more varieties of Spanish or on contrastive aspects of Spanish
and other (un)related languages.

                   Guidelines for Contributors

   Articles will be published in English and Spanish. Papers should be
approximately 6000 words in length. They should be accompanied by an
abstract of not more than 150 words and a list of key words.

   Authors should supply a brief biographical sketch. Papers should be
submitted in electronic form as well as in four paper copies to:
r.marquez-reiter at surrey.ac.uk, Department of Linguistic and
International Studies, University of Surrey, Guildford GU2 7XH,
Surrey, UK.

   The electronic version may be on disk or it may be sent as
an e-mail attachment, in any recent version of Microsoft Word or Word
Perfect.

1.  AUTHORS are invited to initially submit an abstract of their
contribution preferably via email to the editor at the address given
below. [On request, prospective authors will be sent a document
template (MS Word, current version) by the editor.]

2.  MANUSCRIPT submissions should be accompanied by a biographical
note (50-75 words), an abstract (100-150 words) and the author(s) full
name and address.

3.  Manuscripts may be submitted as email attachments if they do not
contain unusual fonts. Otherwise two hard copies should be sent to the
editorial address. Upon acceptance the author will be requested to
submit the final version as email attachment or on disk, saved in a
standard word processing format and in ASCII, and two hard copies of the
text.

4.  Papers should be reasonably divided into SECTIONS and, if
necessary, sub-sections.

5.  Contributions should be in English or Spanish. English spelling
should be American English consistently throughout. If not written by a
native speaker of English it is advisable to have the paper checked by a
native speaker.

6.  Line drawings (FIGURES) and photographs (PLATES) should be
submitted in camera-ready form or as TIFF or EPS files accompanied by a
hard copy. They should be numbered consecutively, with appropriate
captions. Reference to any Figures or Plates should be made in the main
text and their desired position should be indicated on the printout.

7.  TABLES should be numbered consecutively and provided with
appropriate captions. They should be referred to in the main text and
their desired position should be indicated on the printout.

8.  QUOTATIONS should be given in double quotation marks. Quotations
longer than 4 lines should be indented with a blank line above and
below the quoted text.

9.  EXAMPLES should be numbered with Arabic numerals in parentheses
and set apart from the main body of the text with a blank line above
and below. Examples from languages other than Modern English should
appear in italics with a translation in single quotes immediately
below each such example. If required, a word-by-word gloss (without
quotes) may be provided between the example phrase and the
translation.

10.  ENDNOTES should be kept to a minimum. They should be numbered
consecutively throughout the text in square brackets or
superscript. They should be listed in a section 'Notes' following the
main text. The notes should not contain reference material if this can
be absorbed in the text and list of references.

11.  REFERENCES in the text should be as precise as possible, giving
page references where necessary; for example: (Brinton 1996: 37). All
references in the text should appear in the list of References.

12.  The REFERENCES should follow the Notes. References should be
listed (1) alphabetically and (2) chronologically. Names of journals
should be given in full with page references. Please pay special
attention to the use of capitals, italics and punctuation marks given in
the following examples:
