The sheer scale of global ecosystem devastation and the crescendo of the climate crisis may serve as good reasons for scholars and commentators to welcome any social mobilization that tries to save the earth. And yet not all environmentalisms are good environmentalisms. From eco-fascism to greenwashing and neoliberal conservation, not all 'green' action has a positive value. Offering a critical framework for discourse analysts to get to the heart of this specific complexity, this book is a study

Call for Papers: For this edition of the Poznań Linguistic Meeting, we invite participants to engage with the leitmotif “Linguistics in dialogue: looking for parallels beyond language.” We would like to encourage reflection on how linguistic phenomena can be illuminated/informed by other domains. Linguistics has long relied on analogies to describe, explain, and model language: language as a system, as a network, as a biological capacity, as a cultural phenomenon. Such metaphors often sha

This conference seeks to highlight how the synergistic connection between the arts, museums, and (language) classrooms can create third spaces (Bhabha 2010) or, in Li’s terms, “translanguaging spaces” (Li 2011, 2018). In such spaces, language users actively draw on their full range of resources and modalities (including visual, embodied, sensory, and social) to construct meanings in interaction, embracing their inner spaces, personal journeys, and aesthetic sensibilities (Anderson et al. 2018; B

To see translation at sea is to see Brest, at the tip of Brittany: the ways the light changes on the water, waves skipping along to break on the shore. It is to recognize the many sea-related industries, from cosmetics to defence, that are economic engines, essential to translation and technical writing, for Brest and for the region. But to see translation and technical writing at sea is also to recognize the winds of change - driven chiefly by AGI and LLMs - that are currently buffeting the

Organizers: Natasha Korotkova (Utrecht University) and Salvador Mascarenhas (ENS) Submission link: https://openreview.net/group?id=ESSLLI.eu/2026/Workshop/CSA Propositional attitudes, linguistically expressed with predicates like “believe”, “intend”, “know” or “want”, constitute one of the central topics in linguistics and philosophy, and they are the foundation of belief-desire-intention psychology. Propositional attitudes allow us to express key aspects of our mental lives for external use

I am running a 15-minute survey on the acceptability of alternative constructions for German nouns as part of my undergraduate dissertation. The survey is entirely in German and open to any adult speakers whether they consider themselves native speakers or not. I am particularly interested in more repsonses from men, as the current sample is quite biased right now. At the end of the task, you may optionally supply your age (in bins), gender, and first language. You may also enter a raffle

Especially those of you working with West African languages, but anyone can chime in: I'm looking at a tone process in Kusuntu (bqg) of central Togo called HLH plateauing and wondering if it is an aerial phenomenon. Plateauing occurs where there is an underlying HLH pattern across a morpheme- or word-boundary. The singly-linked L tone delinks and floats. The unassociated segment takes a H (because of H-spreading), but the floating L causes it to downstep so the resulting surface pattern i
