Scope & Guideline
Unveiling the intricacies of language studies since 1978.
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Semiotics and Discourse Analysis:
A core area of focus, exploring how language interacts with other semiotic systems and how discourse shapes and is shaped by social contexts. - Linguistic Variation and Change:
Investigations into dialectal variations, sociolinguistic factors, and the evolution of language, particularly within Brazilian Portuguese and its interaction with other languages. - Language Acquisition and Learning:
Research on both first and second language acquisition, including the influence of sociolinguistic factors and cross-linguistic interactions. - Cognitive Linguistics and Semantics:
Studies that examine the relationship between language, thought, and cultural contexts, emphasizing how meaning is constructed in language use. - Interdisciplinary Approaches:
Incorporating perspectives from psychology, sociology, and philosophy to enrich linguistic analysis and application, especially in relation to contemporary social issues.
Trending and Emerging
- Discourse and Social Issues:
An emerging focus on the relationship between language and pressing social issues, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and discussions around gender and race, highlights the relevance of linguistic analysis in understanding contemporary discourse. - Multimodal and Intermedial Studies:
There is a noticeable trend towards examining language in conjunction with other media forms, such as visual and digital communication, reflecting the increasing complexity of communication in modern contexts. - Neurolinguistics and Cognitive Approaches:
A growing interest in the cognitive aspects of language processing and acquisition suggests a trend towards integrating neuroscience with linguistic research, offering insights into how language is represented and processed in the brain. - Language and Technology:
Research on the impact of digital communication, including the analysis of language in social media and the study of language technologies, is becoming increasingly prominent, addressing the evolving nature of language in a technology-driven world.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Grammatical Norms:
Research focusing solely on prescriptive grammar and traditional grammatical norms is becoming less frequent, as contemporary linguistics increasingly embraces descriptive and usage-based approaches. - Historical Linguistics:
While still relevant, there seems to be a waning interest in purely historical linguistic studies, particularly those that do not connect to current sociolinguistic contexts or applications. - Formal Syntax:
Studies that strictly adhere to formal syntactic theories without integrating broader linguistic contexts or practical applications are seeing a reduction, as interdisciplinary approaches gain traction.
