Introducing Key Linguists
(https://www.routledge.com/Introducing-Key-Linguists/book-series/IKL)

Book series editors: Bo Wang & Yuanyi Ma

This book series aims to provide a brief introduction to the life and
seminal works of a certain linguist (or a group of linguists such as
the Prague School and the London School). For readers who are
interested in linguistics and in the various linguists being
introduced in particular, the books describe the major events in the
linguists’ life, trace the academic influences on the linguists,
discuss the development of their ideas, and introduce the seminal
works by the linguists in different research areas throughout their
careers.

The contents of each volume in the series include:
- a biography of the linguists,
- scholars and schools of linguistics having influenced the linguists,
- scholars and schools of linguistics having been influenced by the
linguists,
- different stages in the development of the linguists’ works,
- the major theoretical contributions of the linguists, and
- the major areas of application of the linguists’ works.

After discussing each topic, some important references can be provided
to guide readers of the books for further research.

The books in the series will not have a fixed template, but each book
will be carefully written by the authors and the outline will be
reviewed by the series editors before the writing process starts.

Each book will be specially commissioned.

Each book will be written by one author or a team of authors, who are
expected to bring together experience from different regions across
the globe. This will ensure both a unity of approach and a
comprehensive feel to the series.

Each book will be designed to serve as references to students and
researchers who explore different topics in linguistics.

Expected word count: around 80,000–100,000 words

Please email your proposal and/or any questions to the series editors
