Topics in Linguistics

Aims & Scope

Topics in Linguistics is a double-blind, peer-reviewed international scientific journal issued twice a year by the Department of English and American Studies, the Faculty of Arts, at the Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra.

The journal aims to foster interdisciplinary, cross-linguistic and cross-cultural approaches to language research.

Topics in Linguistics seeks to publish high-quality, original papers which adopt diverse theoretical and methodological perspectives in exploring a wide range of current issues in linguistic studies.

Although papers on world languages are considered, we especially encourage submissions dealing with the majority and minority languages spoken in Europe.

Subject areas of study include, but are not limited to: • general linguistics (phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics) • interfaces with general linguistics (neurolinguistics, psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, computational linguistics) • cognitive linguistics • comparative linguistics • corpus linguistics • applied linguistics • stylistics • (critical) discourse analysis • intercultural communication
