Call for Proposals:
Texts in the Indigenous Languages of the Americas

The Texts in the Indigenous Languages of the Americas series is an annual
supplement to the International Journal of American Linguistics dedicated to
the presentation of analyzed oral texts from the indigenous languages of the
Americas. TILA volumes are guest-edited, thematically-organized collections of
texts published as a supplement to the April issue of IJAL and online on the
IJAL website.

Issues in the series may be single-authored or edited multi-contributor
collections, and will have a print component of 200 journal-format (6'' x 9'')
pages, approximately 1,200 lines of analyzed text, as well as online PDF and
HTML versions accompanied by audio recordings. Texts will be presented in
four-line interlinear glossing following IJAL format
(www.americanlinguistics.org/?page_id=93), and must follow a uniform style
throughout, including the use of a consistent set of abbreviations. Preference
will be given to texts for which recordings with time-aligned transcripts can
be provided. There is no restriction as to subject matter, and texts from a
variety of genres including myths, legends, rituals, and personal narratives
are welcome.

Proposals should include:
- a one to two page description of the volume, outlining and justifying the
unifying theme (e.g., language, language family, geographic area, subject
matter), the origins of the texts to be included, and the relevant experience
of the author/editor(s) with the language(s) involved
- a detailed table of contents
- short (50-100 word) bios of the contributors
- a short excerpt (5-10 pages) of analyzed text laid out in TILA page format
and style
- an assessment of how much work has been done on the project and what remains
to be done

Page formatting and other instructions can be found at
http://www.americanlinguistics.org/?page_id=707
Where appropriate, contributors will be required to demonstrate that
appropriate permissions for the publication of these materials have been
obtained.

We are currently seeking proposals for TILA 6, to be published with the April
2022 issue:
- December 1, 2019: submission of proposals
- January 15, 2020: notification of decisions
- September 1, 2020: receipt of manuscript for review
- December 1, 2020: receipt of reviews/notification of acceptance
- March 2021: revised manuscript due
- July 2021: final deadline for production

Address proposals and inquiries to ijal at press.uchicago.edu. Please include
''TILA'' in the subject line.
