Calls: Echanges Linguistiques en Sorbonne: “Volume 11, 2025-2026”

Journal: Echanges Linguistiques en Sorbonne (ELIS)
Call Deadline: 29-Sep-2025

The online journal ÉLIS (ISSN 2425-1526 https://celiso.paris-sorbonne.fr/revue-des-jeunes-chercheurs/), a double-blind peer-reviewed journal run by young linguistics researchers at Sorbonne University, is launching a call for papers (Volume 11, 2025-2026). The goal is to offer young researchers in language sciences a space to publish their first work.

Articles may cover all areas of language sciences, regardless of the theoretical and methodological framework used, and all languages, including interlingual comparisons. Authors should make a particular effort to make their articles accessible to the entire linguistics community—not just specialists in the languages studied—by explaining their theoretical approach, bibliographic sources, and concepts specific to their descriptive tradition, as well as by supporting their arguments with as many examples as necessary, preferably authentic ones.

Your proposals, including a provisional title, a few keywords, and a selective bibliography, along with a summary of the article of no more than two pages, should be sent to the editorial board (revuelinguistiquesorbonne@gmail.com) by September 29, 2025, at the latest. Fully written articles are also accepted from this date onwards.

Each article must be preceded by at least two abstracts, one in French and one in English, and possibly a third in another language (the language of the article, for example). Master’s students whose proposals are accepted must, at the end of the review process, send the editorial board an authorization for publication from their research supervisor. The journal also encourages doctoral students to discuss their articles in detail with their research supervisor at all stages of the process. Articles will be published on the ÉLIS journal website and reposted on the CELISO (Centre de Linguistique en Sorbonne) website.

Here is a summary of the provisional publication schedule:

1. Deadline for receipt of proposals (abstracts at minimum): September 29, 2025
2. Editorial board’s decision on acceptance/rejection of abstracts: October 3, 2025
3. Deadline for receipt of V1 (full article): November 17, 2025
