Starting with volume 7 (2025), Eric Fuß (Ruhr-Universität Bochum) will
join Ermenegildo Bidese (University of Trento) as editor of the John
Benjamins journal Evolutionary Linguistic Theory.
Evolutionary Linguistic Theory (ELT) is an international peer-reviewed
journal intended as a platform for discussing the question of the
origin and development of the language faculty understood as a
specifically dedicated part of the human mind/brain and its connection
with the human cognition. The specificity of the journal is to
contribute to the ongoing debate on language origin from an explicitly
linguistic viewpoint which examines its complex subject from a
well-grounded knowledge in theoretical linguistics (with its
subsystems, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, language acquisition
and language change, historical linguistics and philosophy of
language), and reaching out into the contiguous scientific
disciplines, as psychology, philosophy and cognitive neuroscience.
In the following we give a not exhaustive list of matters ELT is
concerned with:
- The design of the language faculty
- The role of the lexicon in the architecture of the language faculty
- The role of categorization and features for the origin of language
- The question of protolanguage
- Language and thought
- Language, music and action from an evolutionary perspective
- Language and other cognitive domains like vision and spatiality from
an evolutionary perspective
- The connection between the internal reality molded by language and
the external world
- Language and the origin of consciousness and subjectness
- Language and shared intentionality
- Historical perspectives on the question about the origin of language
ELT publishes its articles Online First.
