Aims and Scopes

CogniTextes is dedicated to exploring the intersections of cognitive linguistics, discourse analysis, and language structure across various languages, particularly focusing on how cognitive processes influence language use and understanding.
  1. Cognitive Linguistics and Discourse Analysis:
    The journal emphasizes the role of cognitive processes in language comprehension and production, exploring how these processes shape discourse and meaning.
  2. Cross-Linguistic Studies:
    CogniTextes regularly features comparative studies across different languages and dialects, particularly Romance languages, to uncover universal linguistic principles and language-specific phenomena.
  3. Language Structure and Use:
    Research often investigates the structural aspects of language, such as syntax and semantics, and how these structures relate to their pragmatic use in communication.
  4. Experimental and Corpus-Based Methodologies:
    The journal supports empirical research methodologies, including experimental studies and corpus linguistics, to provide robust evidence for theoretical claims in linguistics.
  5. Pedagogical Implications:
    CogniTextes also addresses the implications of linguistic research for language teaching and learning, particularly through the lens of cognitive linguistics and construction grammar.
Recent publications in CogniTextes reveal a clear shift towards exploring innovative and interdisciplinary themes that bridge cognitive linguistics with practical applications and experimental research.
  1. Contextualized Linguistic Analysis:
    There is a growing trend towards analyzing language use in context, with papers employing experimental methods and corpus linguistics to assess how context influences meaning and language construction.
  2. Cognitive Mechanisms in Language Use:
    Emerging research focuses on the cognitive mechanisms underlying language processing, including how speakers make choices in language use and the impact of cognitive factors on linguistic structures.
  3. Pedagogical Approaches in Language Learning:
    An increasing interest in applying cognitive linguistics principles to language pedagogy is evident, with a focus on user-friendly teaching methods that leverage insights from construction grammar.
  4. Interdisciplinary Connections:
    The journal is also seeing a rise in interdisciplinary studies that connect linguistics with fields like psychology, art interpretation, and education, reflecting a broader understanding of language as a cognitive and social phenomenon.

Declining or Waning

While CogniTextes continues to thrive in various areas of linguistic research, certain themes appear to be diminishing in prominence, reflecting changing interests and methodologies within the field.
  1. Figurative Language and Art Interpretation:
    Themes surrounding the interpretation of figurative language and artistic works, such as the abstract vs. figurative debate, have been less frequently addressed in recent issues, possibly indicating a shift towards more empirical and cognitive-focused research.
  2. Traditional Syntax and Grammar:
    There is a noticeable decline in papers focusing on traditional grammatical frameworks and syntax, as the journal appears to be moving towards more cognitive and usage-based approaches rather than prescriptive grammar.
  3. Static Language Analysis:
    Research that focuses solely on static language analysis without considering cognitive or contextual factors seems to be waning, as the journal increasingly values dynamic, context-sensitive approaches.
