Subject: New John Benjamins Journal: Register Studies

 
John Benjamins Publishing is pleased to announce the planned publication in
2019 of a new journal entitled Register Studies.

Register Studies will be a refereed journal devoted to the publication of
empirical, methodological, and theoretical research on register and its
relationship to all aspects of language use, variation, change, and learning.
This journal will provide a forum for the publication of high-quality studies
related to:

- Spoken or written registers in any language or time period
- Language variation across registers and detailed analyses of single
registers
- Diachronic linguistic change within or across registers
- Language for specific purposes and English for academic purposes
- Methodological approaches to the study of register
- Text selection and corpus design issues for register studies
- Theoretical models for understanding register
- The application of register analysis in language learning, teaching, and
assessment

Register Studies is intended to be highly interdisciplinary, welcoming
scholarship on register from areas such as corpus linguistics, discourse
analysis, sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, Systemic Functional
Linguistics, language teaching, and computational linguistics. Research on
English-language registers, analyses of registers in languages other than
English, and cross-linguistic comparisons of registers will be welcome.
Register Studies will regularly publish reviews of books, corpora, and
research tools focused on register research. All contributions will undergo
double-blind peer review.
