John Benjamins welcomes Jürgen Streeck (The University of Texas at
Austin) and a brand new board for the bookseries Gesture Studies.

Gesture Studies aims to publish book-length publications on all
aspects of gesture. Topics may include, but are not limited to: the
relationship between gesture and speech; the role gesture may play in
communication in all the circumstances of social interaction,
including conversations, the work-place or instructional settings;
gesture and cognition; the development of gesture in children; the
place of gesture in first and second language acquisition; the
processes by which spontaneously created gestures may become
transformed into codified forms; the documentation and discussion of
vocabularies of ‘quotable’ or ‘emblematic’ gestures; the relationship
between gesture and sign; studies of gesture systems or sign languages
such as those that have developed in factories, religious communities
or in tribal societies; the role of gesture in ritual interactions of
all kinds, such as greetings, religious, civic or legal rituals;
gestures compared cross-culturally; gestures in primate social
interaction; biological studies of gesture, including discussions of
the place of gesture in language origins theory; gesture in
multi-modal human-machine interaction; historical studies of gesture;
and studies in the history of gesture studies, including discussions
of gesture in the theatre or as a part of rhetoric.
Volumes in this peer-reviewed series may be collected volumes,
monographs, or reference books, in the English language.
