Aims & Scope

Transactions of the Philological Society has appeared since 1854 and continues the earlier Proceedings (1842-53), making it the oldest scholarly journal devoted to the general study of language and languages that has an unbroken tradition.

It is published in three issues a year and distributed to all PhilSoc members as part of their subscription package.

TPhS welcomes articles from scholars at any stage of their career which have evidence-based approaches to linguistics.

All articles are double-blind peer-reviewed by two or more reviewers.

We normally expect to return reviews to authors within 3 months of their first submission.
