Full Title: English Language and Linguistics 


Linguistic Field(s): General Linguistics 

Subject Language(s): English (eng)

Language Family(ies): Germanic 

Call Deadline: 15-Nov-2022 

Call for Papers:

The journal English Language and Linguistics (ELL) publishes one special issue
each year, and we would now like to invite proposals for the special issue to
be published in 2024.

Special issues should be focused on a specific topic which is of key interest
to specialists in the various sub-disciplines of English linguistics. The
topics and contents of past special issues can be consulted by viewing back
issues on the ELL website:

https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/english-language-and-linguistics/infor
mation/about-this-journal

As a rough guideline, a special issue should be a collection of 5–10 targeted
(often commissioned) articles, including a lead article or 'perspectivizing'
introduction by the editor(s), with a maximum length of 100,000 words for the
entire special issue. However, no strict format is prescribed and editors are
welcome to propose novel formats (for example, articles may be followed by
responses from others). All articles submitted for a special issue will be
subjected to the same rigorous quality and reviewing standards as regular
submissions to English Language and Linguistics. The issue's editor(s) will
collaborate closely with one of the regular editors of the journal during the
reviewing stage and when deciding upon the ultimate selection of papers to be
published.

The deadline for the first drafts of articles is expected to be around 1 July
2023, and the final revised versions of all articles in the special issue must
be submitted by 1 March 2024 at the latest (to be ready for publication in the
second issue of the year).

Proposals for a possible special issue should be no longer than 4 pages,
including:

- information on the relevance of the topic and on what makes it attractive to
the international English Linguistics community
- the special expertise of the editor(s)
- a preliminary list of contributors
- potentially, short abstracts of the papers (c. 50–75 words)

Please send proposals by 15 November 2022 to the following email address: 

ellsubmissions at cambridge.org.

This will distribute the proposal to all three editors of ELL. Feel free to
contact any or all of us in advance of this deadline if you have any queries
about any of this. We would encourage those thinking of submitting a proposal
to contact us to discuss it.
