De Gruyter Mouton and Ishara Press are pleased to announce the co-
publication of two new series in sign linguistics.


Sign Languages and Deaf Communities (SLDC)
Series editors: Annika Herrmann, Markus Steinbach and Ulrike Zeshan

Over the past decades, the field of sign language linguistics has 
expanded considerably. Recent research on sign languages includes a 
wide range of subdomains such as reference grammars, theoretical 
linguistics, psycho- and neurolinguistics, sociolinguistics, and applied 
studies on sign languages and Deaf communities. The new series Sign 
Languages and Deaf Communities is concerned with the study of sign 
languages in a comprehensive way, covering various theoretical, 
experimental, and applied dimensions of sign language research and 
their relationship to Deaf communities around the world. This series 
provides a multidisciplinary platform for innovative and outstanding 
research in sign language linguistics and aims at linking the study of 
sign languages to current trends in modern linguistics, such as new 
experimental and theoretical investigations, the importance of 
language endangerment, the impact of technological developments on 
data collection and Deaf education, and the broadening geographical 
scope of typological sign language studies, especially in terms of 
research on non-Western sign languages and Deaf communities.

Sign Language Typology (SLT)
Series editors: Marie Coppola, Onno Crasborn and Ulrike Zeshan

The Sign Language Typology series is dedicated to the comparative 
study of sign languages around the world. Individual or collective works 
that systematically explore typological variation across sign languages 
are the focus of this series, with particular emphasis on 
undocumented, underdescribed and endangered sign languages. The 
scope of the series primarily includes cross-linguistic studies of 
grammatical domains across a larger or smaller sample of sign 
languages, but also encompasses the study of individual sign 
languages from a typological perspective and comparison between 
signed and spoken languages in terms of language modality, as well 
as theoretical and methodological contributions to sign language 
typology.
