Brain, Mind, and the Signifying Body

Open Linguistics Series

Series Editor

Robin Fawcett, University of Wales, Cardiff

This series is 'open' in two senses. First, it provides a forum for works associated with any school

of linguistics or with none. Most practising linguists have long since outgrown the unhealthy

assumption that theorizing about language should be left to those working in the generativist-

formalist paradigm. Today large and increasing numbers of scholars are seeking to understand

the nature oflanguage by exploring one or other of various cognitive models oflanguage, or in

terms of the communicative use of language, or both. This series is playing a valuable part in re-

establishing the traditional 'openness' of the study of language. The series includes many

studies that are in, or on the borders of, various functional theories oflanguage, and especially

(because it has been the most widely used of these) Systemic Functional Linguistics. The

general trend of the series has been towards a functional view of language, but this simply

reflects the works that have been offered to date. The series continues to be open to all

approaches, including works in the generativist-formalist tradition.

The second way in which the series is 'open' is that it encourages studies that open out 'core'

linguistics in various ways: to encompass discourse and the description of natural texts; to

explore the relationships between linguistics and its neighbouring disciplines - psychology,

sociology, philosophy, cultural and literary studies - and to apply it in fields such as education,

language pathology and law.
