LANGUAGE-IN-USE AND THE LITERARY ARTIFACT<http://rep.ucpress.edu/content/137/1>
a special issue of Representations<rep.ucpress.edu/front> (no. 137, Winter 2017)
Free for a limited time on Highwire<http://rep.ucpress.edu/content/137/1> [http://rep.ucpress.edu/content/137/1]
 Literary critics and theorists often shy away from talking about writers and readers as people who put language to use. Instrumentalized reason, positivism, and other watchwords warn against turning a literary artifact into mere data or information, or making it part of an exchange of language that is not exclusively aesthetic in nature. At the same time, when critics seek praxis in literature, speak about the performative attributes of a text, or discuss how to do things with words, they usually treat whatever text they are considering as a stable object. The contributors to this special issue of Representations are all interested in language-in-use as it applies to different kinds of linguistic artifacts and to text understood as the dynamic product of an interactive process. –from the introduction

Hello LINGANTH administrators,

Michael Silverstein, one of the contributors to Representations new special issue, "Language-In-Use and the Literary Artifact," has suggested that the subscribers to LINGANTH would be interested to know of the issue's publication.

As the journal is not a subscriber to the listserv, I wonder if such an announcement (attached here) would be welcome, and if so, what is the best way to get it to your subscribers?

Thanks for your help,

Jean Day
