Subject: Call for Proposals: Journal of French Language Studies

 
The Journal of French Language Studies (Cambridge University Press) invites
colleagues to submit proposals for a special thematic issue of the Journal, to
be published in March 2017.

Submissions will be expected to represent state-of-the-art research in a
particular area and to this end should demonstrate that contributions are
representative of current activity in the domain proposed.

Proposals must include the following information:

- Name(s) and affiliation(s) of the proposing/coordinating editor(s)
- Theme of the special issue
- A description, in no more than 250 words, of the research context of the
topics to be covered, and the rationale for a thematic issue in this subject
area that clearly delineates the theoretical framework and research
significance of the topic. Care should be taken to clearly describe the
specific focus of the special issue and to demonstrate how each article
contributes to the overall coherence of the theme.
- Names of contributing authors, their affiliations, the titles of their
articles and brief abstracts (around 150 words). Where individual abstracts
make contradictory claims, a brief explanation of how this contributes to an
overall understanding of the theme should be outlined.
- A brief glossary of any specialist technical terms not in common usage.
- An overall list of references.

Please note that we are unlikely to consider proposals too closely related to
areas covered in recent or forthcoming thematic issues, as follows:

- Knowledge and use of the lexicon in French as a second language
- Relations de cohérence et fonctionnement des anaphores
- French in a cross-cultural pragmatics context
- Regards croisés sur la prosodie du français
- First language acquisition of French grammar (from 0 to 4)
- L'hypothèse d'une diglossie en France
- Negation and Clitics in French and Romance: What kind of interaction?
- La diachronie du français : Etudes de marqueurs verbaux du TAM
- Les modalisateurs émergents en français contemporain

Proposals should be sent by email, to arrive by 1st May 2015 to:

Professor Julia Herschensohn
Co-ordinating Editor of JFLS
