    We are pleased to announce the launch of Spanish in Context, a new international peer-reviewed journal published by John Benjamins. The first issue of this biannual journal was published in March 2004 and the second issue will be published in August 2004 (see http://www.benjamins.com/cgi-bin/t_seriesview.cgi?series=SiC). We are currently inviting contributions in the areas of the journal described below for the third issue of the journal to be published in March 2005.

    Spanish in Context publishes original theoretical, empirical and methodological studies into pragmatics, variationist and interactional sociolinguistics, sociology of language, discourse and conversation analysis, functional contextual analyses, bilingualism, and cross and intercultural communication with the aim of extending our knowledge of Spanish and of these disciplines themselves. Also found in Spanish in Context are articles on historical approaches to the contextual Spanish fields as well as on the pragmatics of translation and areas of applied linguistics such as first and second language acquisition, the teaching of Spanish, and business communication.

    The journal is also a home for corpus-based studies of an interactional nature where specific instances of language use as utterances in context are analysed. The studies will either focus on one or more varieties of Spanish or on contrastive aspects of Spanish and other (un)related languages.

    Articles are published in English and Spanish. Papers should be approximately 6000 words in length. They should be accompanied by an abstract of not more than 150 words and a list of key words. Authors should supply a brief biographical sketch. Papers should be submitted in electronic form as to sicsurrey.ac.uk well as in one paper copy to R. Marquez Reiter, Department of Linguistic and International Studies, University of Surrey, Guildford GU2 7XH, Surrey, UK. The electronic version may be on disk or it may be sent as an e-mail attachment, in any recent version of Microsoft Word.
