Call for Contributors!

Brill is calling for scholars to join the team of our longstanding tradition of "The Year's Work in Modern Language Studies".

We are looking for contributors who are motivated to keep up with the newest publications in their field of study and write an annual critical bibliographical survey on it. Your survey will be an invaluable resource for your fellow scholars to stay informed of what really matters and stands out.

Each contribution covers publications on a modern European language or related literature in a certain period, for instance French Studies of the Seventeenth Century, Medieval Welsh Literature, Modern Greek Linguistics, or Occitan Literature. All contributions are in English and written by experts in the field.

We currently have the following list of vacancies in your research area. Would you like to write a survey on 2024 publications onwards?
• Portuguese Language and Linguistics
• Galician Language and Linguistics
• Russian Language and Linguistics
• Dutch Language and Linguistics
• Catalan Language and Linguistics
• Francophone and French Language and Linguistics

As contributor you:
- keep up an almost century old tradition of "The Year's Work in Modern Language Studies" to offer your fellow scholars a roadmap to the scholarly highlights of the past year,
- help your fellow scholars save time by disseminating the most noteworthy publications in your field,
- expand your library, as you can keep all the review copies you have requested,
- get free access to a broad selection of Brill’s publications,
- can connect with fellow contributors who are working along with you,
- have an external motivation to keep up with new research in a given year,
- publish in Open Access when you are affiliated to an institute we have an institutional OA agreement with Institutional Open Access Agreements (https://brill.com/page/institutionaloa ).

Is this something for you? We appreciate your expertise and work a lot. You can express your interest by contacting the publisher, Masja Horn ([email protected]) or one of the section editors on www.brill.com/YWML.
