Final Call for Papers: The computational humanities and social sciences (CHSS) constitute a rapidly growing area that works with massive amounts of unstructured textual, linguistic, and sociocultural data. Despite the scale and complexity of these datasets, CHSS researchers overwhelmingly rely on tools that are either slow (e.g., pure Python), fragmented across ecosystems, or difficult to integrate into modern workflows that require both prototyping and high-performance computation. This m

Call for Papers: Description: Polysemous expressions have multiple closely related senses, and there is a substantial amount of semantic and computational linguistic research on polysemy found in different categories of expressions, such as adjectives, nouns and verbs. However, the extent to which there is interaction between researchers working on polysemy in different categories of expressions is limited. This workshop will focus on approaches to polysemy across different grammatical categ

Call for Papers: Abstracts are invited for 60-minute talks in a one-day conference 鈥楾he role of semantics in syntax鈥�, which is to be held at Magdalen College, Oxford, on 20 June 2026. The aim of the conference is to explore ways in which the syntax of a sentence might be influenced by its semantics, in opposition to the traditional Chomskyan conception of the autonomy of syntax. The conference is inspired by two recent speculative developments: the revival of the architecture of the grammar p

Speech act theory has been foundational in establishing pragmatics as an independent field of inquiry; yet, recent pragmatic research appears to have drifted away from the theoretical investigation of speech acts. This Element explores the reasons why this is so, focusing on the difference of perspective that emerges when the scope of the discipline is viewed through a narrow versus a broad lens. Following an overview of the initial exposition of speech act theory by Austin, it tracks its evolut

This Element examines language, power and intersex variations within clinician accounts in Hong Kong, examining how they communicate about intersex traits to patients and their families. Employing interactional sociolinguistics, the research analyses clinician interviews as dynamic social interactions, focusing on how communicative stances are negotiated and social practices are enacted. The Element probes the influence of biopower on clinicians' stances (encompassing gender, sexual difference,

Doxxing is the deliberate, unauthorized disclosure of personal information, often with malicious intent. Notably, it became a key method of public shaming and vigilantism during the 2019鈥�2020 Hong Kong protests. This Element understands and examines doxxing as a discursive practice. Using critical discourse analysis (CDA), it analyzes online forum discussions, survey and interview data from Hong Kong university students. Findings are examined alongside institutional legal texts to show how doxxi

This Element adopts a holistic approach to the processing of colours in language and literature, weaving together insights from cognitive linguistics, psychology, and literary studies. Through diverse case studies, it underpins the symbolic power of colours in evoking characters' emotional states, moral traits, and cultural perceptions (Section 2). Section 3 explores how colour metaphors such as discomfort is brown influence readers' cognitive and emotional responses, drawing on psychology resea

How does a biologically-programmed language faculty interact with language experience in the acquisition of language across the world? Bringing together linguistic theory, language typology, and cross-linguistic experimental results from parallel studies of development in language acquisition, this book reports new research on the nature of the human competence for language acquisition. It investigates the acquisition of complex sentence formation through relativization -a fundamental component

One of the key challenges in linguistics is to account for the link between linguistic knowledge and our use of language in a way that is both descriptively accurate and cognitively plausible. This pioneering book addresses these challenges by combining insights from Construction Grammar and Relevance Theory, two influential approaches which until now have been considered incompatible. After a clear and detailed presentation of both theories, the author demonstrates that their integration is pos
