Journal: Corpus Pragmatics
Issue: Special Issue: Negation and Corpus Pragmatics in Action
Call Deadline: 15-May-2026

This special issue invites submissions from interdisciplinary scholars
working in fields as varied as literary analysis, graffiti and
linguistic landscapes, everyday conversation, political discourse,
computational linguistics/part-of-speech tagging, and more, unifying
them around the common theme of corpus analysis. Contributions will
explore how writers and speakers use negation (affixal and syntactic)
in corpora of naturally occurring language, and for what pragmatic
purposes (supportive, oppositional, comparative). Methodological
approaches are expected to be equally diverse, ranging from
grammaticalization and variationist studies to critical discourse
analysis and corpus-assisted discourse analysis. Textual genres of
interest include formulaic chunks, graffiti slogans, journalistic
discourse, face-to-face conversation, televised election debates, and
social media posts. Language varieties under discussion include
American English, French (both French and Swiss), and Modern Greek.
