Slovo.ru: Baltic Accent

Aims & Scope

"Slovo.ru: Baltic accent" is a theoretical philological journal published by the Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University.

The conceptual core of the journal is philology understood in its etymological sense as love to words.

Words and language are omnipresent.

They are instruments of communication and a fusion of meanings and discourses in their correlation with cultural and social contexts.

Therefore, the journal discusses problems that require reference to philosophy, cognitive science and cultural studies.

The main goal and objectives of the journal are to acquaint the reader with new concepts, ideas and methods, and reflect on the previously achieved results from new perspectives.

The journal is an open platform for discussing the prospects and potential growth points of knowledge in social science and the humanities in the new paradigmatic dimensions of Russian and world science.

The main research themes of the journal are communication, the dynamic processes of meaning construction and representation with regard to sociocultural, cognitive, semiotic, and other factors.

Searching for research methods for investigating these phenomena is another field of interest.
