Aims and Scopes

The 'REVUE DE LINGUISTIQUE ROMANE' focuses on the study of Romance languages, exploring their historical, sociolinguistic, and comparative aspects. It aims to provide a platform for research that enhances the understanding of linguistic variation, evolution, and the relationship between language and culture across Romance-speaking regions.
  1. Comparative Linguistics:
    The journal emphasizes comparative studies among Romance languages, analyzing syntactic, phonetic, and semantic structures to uncover historical connections and variations.
  2. Historical Linguistics:
    Research in this area explores the evolution of Romance languages over time, including the influence of socio-historical contexts on language development.
  3. Sociolinguistics:
    The journal investigates the social dimensions of language use, including dialectology, language contact, and the impact of bilingualism in various regions.
  4. Lexicography and Etymology:
    Studies often focus on the development of vocabulary across Romance languages, including the contributions of historical texts and the evolution of meaning.
  5. Dialectology:
    The exploration of regional dialects and their characteristics is a significant focus, providing insights into linguistic diversity within Romance languages.
  6. Cognitive Linguistics:
    Some articles assess the cognitive aspects of language use and its implications for understanding linguistic structures and historical changes.
Recent publications in the 'REVUE DE LINGUISTIQUE ROMANE' reveal several emerging themes that reflect contemporary research interests and methodologies in the field of Romance linguistics. These themes indicate a shift towards more interdisciplinary and innovative approaches.
  1. Geolinguistics and Language Mapping:
    The emergence of studies focusing on linguistic atlases and geolinguistic analysis highlights the importance of spatial considerations in understanding language variation.
  2. Cognitive and Functional Linguistics:
    An increasing number of papers adopt cognitive and functional perspectives, exploring how cognitive processes influence language structure and use.
  3. Digital Humanities and Corpus Linguistics:
    There is a growing trend towards utilizing digital tools and methodologies for linguistic analysis, allowing for more extensive data collection and innovative approaches to traditional linguistic questions.
  4. Interdisciplinary Approaches:
    Research increasingly incorporates insights from other fields such as sociology, history, and anthropology, providing a more holistic understanding of language in its social context.
  5. Language Change and Variation in Modern Contexts:
    The focus on contemporary language use, including sociolinguistic variables and language change in modern settings, reflects a shift towards understanding language dynamics in real-world contexts.

Declining or Waning

While the journal maintains a robust focus on various aspects of Romance linguistics, certain themes appear to be declining in prominence over recent years. This may reflect shifts in research interests or the evolving landscape of linguistic studies.
  1. Traditional Grammar Studies:
    There has been a noticeable reduction in papers focusing on traditional grammar frameworks, as newer methodologies and interdisciplinary approaches gain traction.
  2. Historical Phraseology:
    Research on historical phraseology has decreased, possibly as researchers shift towards more dynamic aspects of language use rather than static historical forms.
  3. Single Language Focus:
    The journal has gradually moved away from studies concentrating solely on individual Romance languages, favoring comparative and cross-linguistic analyses instead.
