Journal of Historical Syntax

The Journal of Historical Syntax (JHS) presents theoretically-informed papers dealing with any aspect of historical syntax, whether diachronic change or the synchronic description of historical language states. Papers that combine philological expertise with insights from linguistic theory are particularly welcome, though no particular theory or framework will be given precedence.

LFG Proceedings

The  LFG proceedings publish the papers presented at the annual Lexical Functional Grammar conference. Abstracts are peer-reviewed (double-blind) before being accepted to the conference. For the proceedings the full papers undergo another round of reviewing.  Presentation at the conference does not automatically qualify papers for the proceedings, they must be accepted to the proceedings after the review of the full papers.

LFG conferences are intended to foster research and academic exchange on any work within the formal architecture of Lexical Functional Grammar as well as typological, formal, computational and psycholinguistic work within the 'spirit of LFG' as a lexicalist approach to language employing a parallel, constraint-based framework.
