Functions of Language is an international journal of linguistics which explores the functional perspective to the study of language-as-system and of texts-in-context. With special reference to the Prague School and Neo-Firthian functional inheritances, it holds up for discussion theoretical issues and areas of linguistic description relevant to the linguistic community at large, such as: intrinsic and extrinsic functionalism; the interaction between paradigm and syntagm (or #!#!system#!#! and #!#!structure#!#!) in the modelling of linguistic organization, and the quantitative study of system and text, to mention a few. Functions of Language promotes the constructive interaction between theoretical and descriptive findings, and applied research in such fields as educational linguistics, stylistics, translation, artificial intelligence, and communication studies.
Humor research draws upon a wide range of academic disciplines including anthropology, biology, computer science, education, family science, film studies, history, linguistics, literature, mathematics, medicine, philosophy, physiology, psychology, and sociology. At the same time, humor research often sheds light on the basic concepts, ideas, and methods of many of these disciplines.HUMOR, the official publication of the International Society for Humor Studies (ISHS), was established as an international interdisciplinary forum for the publication of high-quality research papers on humor as an important and universal human faculty. The journal publishes original contributions in areas such as interdisciplinary humor research, humor theory, and humor research methodologies. Contributions take the form of empirical observational studies, theoretical discussions, presentations of research, short notes, reactions/replies to recent articles, book reviews, and letters to the editors.
