Aims & Scope

Cognitive Studies | Études cognitives is an international and interdisciplinary annual scientific journal. It was established as a result of Polish-French cooperation co-ordinated by the Institute of Slavic Studies, Polish Academy of Sciences (other partners in the project were: University of Silesia, Centre national de la recherche scientifique, Université Paris-Sorbonne IV and VII). The topics presented in Cognitive Studies | Études Сognitives fall within the scope of contemporary (mainly synchronous) linguistics, including: cognitive theoretical semantics; issues of semantics and grammar in natural languages as manifested in corpus linguistics; lexical semantics; contrastive linguistics; linguistic engineering (e.g. corpus linguistics, mono-, bi- and multilingual corpora) and sociolinguistics. The composition of the Editorial Board reflects the nature of the journal: it is international – the members of the Editorial Board come from Europe (Bulgaria, France, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, Poland, Spain and Ukraine), the Middle East and the Far East (China, Jordan, Pakistan); and interdisciplinary – it comprises professors of linguistics, mathematics and computer science. The primary language of the journal was initially French. In 2004, it was superseded by English. French remained one of the journal’s languages for the sake of tradition. Cognitive Studies | Études cognitives have so far featured contributions by scientists from over 20 countries in Europe, North America and Asia.
