Subject: FYI: Editorial change JB journal Gesture


Starting with volume 23 (2024), Olivier Le Guen (CIESAS, Mexico) will
join Ruth Breckinridge Church (Northeastern Illinois University) as
editor of the John Benjamins journal Gesture.
Gesture publishes articles reporting original research, as well as
survey and review articles, on all aspects of gesture. The journal
aims to stimulate and facilitate scholarly communication between the
different disciplines within which work on gesture is conducted. For
this reason papers written in the spirit of cooperation between
disciplines are especially encouraged.
Topics may include, but are by no means 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 multimodal
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.
Gesture provides a platform where contributions to this topic may be
found from such disciplines as linguistics, archaeology, anthropology,
biology, communication studies, neurology, ethology, theatre studies,
literature and the visual arts, cognitive psychology and computer
engineering.
Gesture publishes its articles Online First.
