Full Title: Scandinavian Studies in Language 


Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics 

Call Deadline: 01-May-2021 

Call for Papers:

The fast-rising interest in computational methods within the humanities and
social sciences is largely driven by the fact that texts in the 21st century
are digitized. We digitize cultural heritage and literary classics, and new
texts within mass communication, education, social media, journalism and
literature are by default produced in digital formats. This development means,
firstly, that it has become relatively easy to build large text corpora and,
secondly, that computational methods, in particular natural language
processing (NLP), have become increasingly important in the study of
everything from literature and archeology to education and sociolinguistics.
Consequently, explicit and detailed analysis of linguistic structure has
become the central starting point of much contemporary research within the
humanities and social sciences.

The aim of this special issue is to explore the limitations and possibilities
of this new linguistic turn. We welcome linguistic, methodological, and
philosophical perspectives on this issue from all areas of the humanities and
the social sciences, focusing on the interface between computational
linguistics and the humanistic and social science disciplines.
