Bloomsbury Academic Handbook Series

Bloomsbury Academic have commissioned the publication of the Handbook
of Language and Sport as part of their Bloomsbury Academic Handbook
Series. This collection will showcase the growing array of research
that is exploring language patterns, practices and issues in sport and
sport contexts. Through this handbook, readers will get a
state-of-the-art account of the research missions, methodological
approaches, the settings or domains of language use being studied,
social issues in sport in which language is implicated, and the
application of linguistic research to the world of sport that have
emerged as foundational to this area of research. We also consider the
future of research in this space that scholars might pursue.

The editors have proposed five sections and thirty chapters for the
collection. The five sections are as follows:

•       Section 1: Approaches to researching language and/in sport
•       Section 2: Domains of language and sport research inquiry
•       Section 3: The sociolinguistics of sport: social issues in
sport through a linguistic lens
•       Section 4: Applications and interventions: applying linguistic
insights to sport
•       Section 5: The future of sports linguistics research

Chapters already approved for inclusion in the handbook are written by
scholars who have been central in building this field of research
activity. However, we would like to openly invite scholars to propose
potential chapters in line with their research interests or on any of
the following topics or areas:

•       The use of Interactional Sociolinguistics to explore language
use in sport (a methodological chapter for Section 1)
•       Language use by or with referees/officials (for Section 2)
•       Language in sports boardrooms or in sports management-level
interactions (for Section 2)
•       Team culture in sports contexts through a linguistic lens (for
Section 3)
•       Language and inclusion/exclusion in sport (for Section 3)
•       Multilingualism in sport: a linguistic perspective (for
Section 3)
•       Any chapters that highlight linguistic consultancy,
applications or interventions in the world of sport

We’d be particularly interested in researchers who take a critical
perspective on these topics. Please send any expressions of interest
to the editors with a short abstract for your chapter by May 6, 2024.

Regards,

Kieran, David and Lindsey
