Subject: Call for Book Proposals for new series: New Directions in World Englishes Research


This series captures the developments and new trajectories of World
Englishes research. It covers traditional perspectives and phenomena
but also ventures beyond this, with a particular focus on work that
examines non-PCEs and other emergent contexts such as hybrid
Englishes, digital Englishes and grassroots Englishes. It also
utilizes methodologies and approaches from other linguistic and
non-linguistic disciplines. The series expands the traditional World
Englishes paradigm by encouraging multidisciplinary perspectives and
adopting a deliberately broad conception of the notion of World
Englishes – one that treats any variety, language form, or mode of
communication that is rooted in the English language as worthwhile and
important to be included in the paradigm. The series captures the
diversity of World Englishes research by publishing a wide range of
innovative monographs and edited collections from both established
scholars and early career researchers.

We are seeking work that:

> Focuses on the most recent developments in the English language,
i.e. non-PCEs and other emergent contexts such as hybrid Englishes,
digital Englishes, grassroots Englishes
> Utilizes methodologies and approaches from other linguistic and
non-linguistic disciplines
> Introduces new varieties of English
> Explores usage contexts such as transnational cyberspace, new media,
or “grassroots” usage and the linguistic makeup of geographic spaces
and urban centres
> Explores the linguistic consequences and results of ongoing
globalization, technological advancements and new and expanded forms
of language contact.
