New Issue Published - Vol. 37, No. 2 (2024)

2024-06-10

The journal Linha D'Água (USP, Brazil) has just published a new issue on the theme: "Linguistics and Health Literacy: Crossing Perspectives."

The scientific contributions that make up the thematic dossier "Linguistics and Health Literacy: Crossing Perspectives" illustrate the richness of a multidisciplinary vision, combining, on one hand, theoretical and methodological approaches from language sciences and, on the other hand, a focus on topics that support health literacy. This creates the guiding thread of the dossier. The collection of 12 contributions and a review share the common goal of presenting foundations, strategies, and results that promote and help improve health literacy.

The thematic dossier was guest-edited by Prof. Dr. Raquel Silva (CLUNL / VOH.CoLAB, Portugal) and Prof. Dr. Sara Carvalho (CLLC / CLUNL, Portugal).

We invite everyone to access the articles in the dossier, which is available at: https://www.revistas.usp.br/linhadagua/issue/view/13356

2024-03-15

The journal Linha D'Água (USP, Brazil) has just released a new issue with the theme: "Dialogue between Brazil and Portugal in Textual and Discourse Studies."

In this issue, 13 articles are gathered, focusing on the relationship between language, text, and discourse from various perspectives: Cognitive Linguistics, Textual Linguistics, Discourse Analysis, Argumentation Theory, and Dialogical Theory.

The two opening texts of the issue are grounded in Conceptual Metaphor studies, within the framework of Cognitive Linguistics. The issue continues with a set of four texts that, to a greater or lesser extent, are anchored in textual studies, either from the perspective of Textual Discourse Analysis or Textual Linguistics. Two of these articles delve into digital discursive practices, a subject that has gained much attention in the field. This is evident in three other articles that comprise the issue, as they present studies on the digital from the perspectives of Rhetoric, Critical Discourse Analysis, and Argumentation Theory. Argumentation serves as the point of articulation between the last text of the set and the following text, which theoretically examines the concept of argument. The three texts that conclude the issue are grounded, to varying degrees, in the dialogical perspective of language. The first article in this set establishes a connection with the previous set by focusing on one of the rhetorical proofs, ethos.

The issue was organized by the journal's editors, Paulo Roberto Gonçalves-Segundo (Editor-in-Chief) and Gabriel Isola-Lanzoni (Associate Editor).

Thematic Issue 38/1: Dialogues of Bakhtin's Work and the Circle with Other Theories and Areas of Knowledge

2024-02-08

The work of Mikhail Bakhtin and the Circle was produced between the late 1910s and 1975, the year of Mikhail Bakhtin's death. This period was marked by epistemological innovations in the fields of philosophy, literary theory, linguistics, education, etc., which was originated, among other factors, from intersections between different areas of knowledge and theories. The work of Mikhail Bakhtin and the Circle is a concrete example that statements, including those of the scientific sphere, are constituted primarily, but not exclusively, in dialogue with other statements within the same field. These intersections will be the object of reflection in this thematic issue along two main axes:

1) The investigation of theoretical bibliographic sources derived from different theories (Marxism, philosophical idealism, linguistic idealism of Humboldt, Russian and Western European formalism, phenomenology, religious philosophy, etc.). The works in this axis should address how the perception of the sources of Bakhtinian ideas is fundamental to their understanding, i.e., how knowledge of these works illuminates aspects of Bakhtin's and the Circle's theory. Due to the complexity of the theories involved, authors are expected to propose in-depth and detailed studies on an author, a work, or a fundamental theory in the constitution of Bakhtinian thought;

2) Considering that, in contemporary times, Bakhtinian theory has come into contact with different areas of knowledge and theories, the works submitted in this axis should highlight the contributions of the work of Mikhail Bakhtin and the Circle to these areas and theories. Emphasis is placed in this axis on the contemporary concept of transdisciplinarity, in which an area of knowledge is constituted by the displacement of concepts from different areas. In this context, the aim is to address how Bakhtinian theory contributes to domains assumedly interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary, such as education and applied linguistics in Brazil.

Linha D’Água accepts submissions in Portuguese, English, French, or Spanish. This journal is indexed in: Web of Science - Clarivate (ESCI), MLA, MIAR, Latindex, REDIB, Linguistic Bibliography, DOAJ, among others.

Submission deadline closed: June 30, 2024.

The journal Linha D'Água (USP, Brazil) has recently published a new issue with the theme: 'Teaching Argumentation.'

In this special issue, readers will find studies discussing the teaching of argumentation from various perspectives and in different curriculum components of basic and higher education. These studies provide theoretical reflections, analytical procedures suitable for didactic purposes, and teaching proposals on argumentation that can serve as a resource for educators and researchers at any level of education.

The issue comprises a collection of nineteen articles and two book reviews, divided into three axes: (i) texts discussing teacher training for teaching argumentation, (ii) texts analyzing the multiplicity of possibilities in the materialization of teaching argumentation, and (iii) texts with contributions from the exact sciences, particularly Mathematics, but also Physics.

The thematic issue had as guest editors Prof. Dr. Eduardo Lopes Piris (UESC, Brazil and Prof. Dr. Isabel Cristina Michelan de Azevedo (UFS, Brazil).

Thematic Issue 37/4: Chiffons de Papier and the Resurgence of the Epistolary: Metamorphoses, Dynamics, and Confluences

2023-11-21

In an increasingly digitalized world, hand-written letters were once the main media of communication and now face imminent extinction. The secular habit of transposing dialogs in absentia in a white piece of paper, during millennia considered ordinary, have become rare. The digital age has changed our experiences of written interaction in everyday life and from e-mail to different apps for short fragmented dialogues; we see the resurgence of modus epistolaris and these polymorphic, nomadic and paradoxical texts.

On the context of transformation, this issue of Linha D’Água has the objective precisely to analyze, in a multi and interdisciplinary perspective, the contemporaneity of the epistolary and examine the metamorphoses triggered by the rise of digital forms of communication.

We welcome reflection on the development of digital humanities, which present significant challenges to the study and analysis of epistolary discourse, insofar as the potentialities of digital technology provide access to and exploration to various dimensions that were once difficult to circumscribe and systematize, covering the philological, linguistic, historical and sociocultural levels.

This thematic issue also encourages investigations on various sides of the epistolary that attracts great interest: primarily, questioning the letter as fragmentary, autobiographical text and highly significant historical and sociological document. In parallel, the use of epistolary resources in literature, including the study of epistolary novels and pamphlet letter, as well as their presence in cinema, are desirable complementary approaches in line with the interdisciplinary dynamic that guides this issue.

The Linha D’Água journal welcomes submissions in Portuguese, English, French or Spanish and is indexed in: Web of Science - Clarivate (ESCI), MLA, MIAR, Latindex, REDIB, Linguistic Bibliography, DOAJ, among others.

Submission deadline (CLOSED): May 31st, 2024.

New Issue - v. 36, n. 2 (2023)

2023-08-13

The journal Linha D'Água (University of São Paulo, Brazil) has just published a new issue with the theme: "Studies in Grammar, Text, and Discourse." This special issue comprises a range of proposals that either delve into specific linguistic phenomena to gain deeper insights into texts/discourses or facilitate a better understanding of language functioning from diverse perspectives – pragmatic, semantic, and morphosyntactic – anchored in textual/discursive configurations.

The issue aims, more than the exhaustive description and analysis of grammatical, textual, and discursive phenomena, to highlight the complex relationships and interactions that are established among the various levels that, methodologically distinct, constitute the inherent dynamism of linguistic functioning, uses, and applications.

The thematic issue was edited by six professors and researchers from different Portuguese universities.

Thematic Issue 37/3: Language(s) in textual, enunciative and discursive studies

2023-07-31

This issue aims to collect articles on language(s) in textual, enunciative and discursive studies within the scope of political, legal, religious, educational, scientific, academic, media, artistic-literary and digital spheres. We expect diverse contributions that investigate different linguistic-discursive materialities (written, spoken, verbal-visual, digital, etc.).

It's expected texts that intend to contextualize the data under investigation, establishing relations between text and discourse – and/or between them and education -, expressing the position of speakers/enunciators/actors/subjects, considering the different theoretical perspectives.

This thematic issue, dedicated to the topic of language(s) in the multiple social fields, is open to contributions from researchers, regardless of their field of work, who can offer theoretical thoughts and analytical procedures in the field of textual, enunciative and discursive studies.

The Linha D’Água journal welcomes submissions in Portuguese, English, French or Spanish and is indexed in: Web of Science - Clarivate (ESCI), MLA, MIAR, Latindex, REDIB, Linguistic Bibliography, DOAJ, among others.

Thematic Issue 37/1: JADIS IX & CIED IV

2023-03-13

This call for papers is intended for participants of the JADIS IX - CIED IV Meeting, which took place on the 12th, 13th and 14th of October 2022, at the Faculty of Arts and Humanities of University of Porto, under the motto: “Past, Present and Future: discussing the relevance of Discourse Studies”.

The call is launched simultaneously in the journals Linha D’Água and REDIS, which will organize a thematic issue each, destined to the publication of works of this Scientific Event. Participants must submit their proposal to one of the two journals. The objective is that the two issues absorb all the works sent and selected through the peer review system.

This thematic issue will thus bring together articles resulting from the communications, plenaries and workshops presented at the Meeting, which must comply with the “Submission Rules” of the journals (Linha D’Água paper submission instructions; REDIS instructions for authors).

The theme of the event started from the recognition of the multifaceted and dispersed character of the currents of analysis and coexisting schools in the area, launching the challenge for an integrated reflection on the object of discourse and its scientific and social relevance. Each proposal presented at the Meeting contributed to demonstrating the said relevance and to favoring the dialogue between the theoretical-methodological proposals, highlighting what they have in common.

NEW submission deadline: July 15, 2023.

Publication preview: April 2024.

Thematic Issue 37/2: Linguistics and health literac(ies): crossing perspectives

2023-02-11
This call focuses on the concept of health literacy, which refers to the motivation and set of abilities each individual has or should have to access, understand, assess and use information about health. Therefore, health literacy is currently a pivotal axis in what concerns public health, both at a national and international level.

In addition to its relevance as a gateway to health education as a right, health literacy also contributes to improving people’s lives by expanding their cognitive skills and by fostering behavioural changes.

However, despite the relatively easy access to health-related information nowadays, several international health literacy assessment questionnaires conclude that a vast majority of individuals struggle to fully grasp that information. Understanding the discourse from a healthcare professional, assimilating information about the way a given medicine is taken, discerning the results of diagnostic examinations, or reading and completing an informed consent before a medical procedure represent some of the challenges depicted in the literature addressing this topic.

International studies show a strong correlation between education, literacy level and one’s state of health, indicating that there is, indeed, a connection between an individual’s literacy and his/her respective ability to understand, argue, question or simply act upon his/her health.

On the other hand, health literacy plays a key role in citizen action by empowering people to make informed decisions and stimulating their autonomy in preventing disease and managing their own health. In short, it is based on the notion of citizen engagement (active involvement), aiming at beneficial impacts for society, such as promoting equity in healthcare access and contributing towards the sustainability of healthcare systems.

Within this scope, language sciences constitute a critical pillar in the development of health literacy as being increasingly effective, efficient and, above all, humanised.

Given the preceding background, we believe it is extremely relevant to dedicate a special issue to the topic of health literacy, highlighting its diverse perspectives and shapes, hence the reference to health literac(ies) in the title.

In order to foster knowledge sharing and to further stimulate reflection, we encourage the submission of original articles, therefore inviting the contribution of specialists, researchers and students whose studies or academic results relate to this topic. We particularly welcome inter- or multidisciplinary studies which emphasise the contribution of language and communication sciences to the promotion of health literacy.

The articles may be more theoretical or methodological in scope or, in turn, oriented towards the presentation of results, as long as the general perspective is centred on the citizen/patient, and may include more traditional formats, as well as others more oriented towards digital health literacy.

The approaches may be diverse, including:
- the analysis of language usage in its various dimensions, through lexical, semantic and morphosyntactic studies;
- the description of grammatical, discursive and textual phenomena, with a view to argumentative and/or descriptive analysis;
- the analysis of specialised phraseology, recurrent in the healthcare domain;
- the use of discourse popularisation for the purposes of effective communication;
- the exercise of terminology popularisation, maintaining the precision and its respective adequacy to the overall communication purpose;
- the use of plain language techniques;
- the discourse mediation between healthcare professionals/patients and expert patients/patients;
- the creation of terminological resources and glossaries with simple and clear explanations or definitions;
- the use of knowledge organisation to aid the understanding of healthcare concepts;
- the design of information materials for health literacy, aimed at the different user profiles and based on the assessment of their needs;
- the creation of storytelling or podcast content as alternative formats for conveying health information;
- the use of narrative medicine techniques, as a practice anchored in the attention to language and to stories, based on the experiences lived and reported by patients;
- the application of health literacy assessment tools to observe aspects of comprehension or perception of health information.

Thematic Issue 36/3: Teaching Argumentation

2022-10-05

The argument is presented in this call as central to gather articles and academic essays that highlight how this object of knowledge has been approached by those who are concerned with the teaching practices carried out in basic education and higher education, mainly in Brazil, but also in many countries of the so-called West.

Linha D’água expects manuscripts that discuss the teaching of argumentation from different perspectives, so that it is possible to know different ways to develop argumentative abilities and/or competences at different educational levels, in alignment with social language practices and different modalities of argumentative interaction .

Multiliterate social practices, educational demands and educational systems are already showing signs that pedagogical practices need to go beyond the traditional teaching model of writing dissertations and academic essays; therefore, there is an expectation that the submitted manuscripts can explore proposals that are associated with contemporary demands for language use.

For these reasons, this thematic issue dedicated to the teaching of argumentation is open to contributions from scholars who, regardless of their area of expertise, can offer theoretical reflections, analytical procedures capable of teaching and proposals for teaching argumentation that serve as a subsidy for teachers who work at any level of education.

Thus, this thematic issue intends to bring together in the same space important discussions that innovate the theoretical, methodological, analytical and didactic scope regarding the teaching of argumentation in Brazil and in other countries.

Linha D’Água accepts works in Portuguese, English, French or Spanish, and is indexed in the main databases: Web of Science - Clarivate (ESCI), MLA, MIAR, Latindex, REDIB, Linguistic Bibliography, DOAJ, and more.

Thematic Issue 36/2: Studies in Grammar, Text, and Discourse

2022-05-22

This call for papers is intended for the participants in the 7th GRATO – International Conference on Grammar & Text, which took place online from the 18th to the 21st of November 2021, organized by the research group Grammar & Text (G&T) of the Linguistics Center of the NOVA University of Lisbon (CLUNL).

This edition of the Linha D’Água journal will bring together articles that contribute to the deepening of the relationship between grammar and text/discourse as a space for convergences and interactions. The research work presented and discussed in them can be developed in different theoretical-methodological frameworks and may also focus on the treatment of topics from different domains of linguistic functioning and activity: morphology, semantics, text theory and discourse analysis, from synchronic and diachronic perspectives.

The journal is indexed in Emerging Sources Citation Index (Web of Science), Latindex, DOAJ, REDIB, MLA, Linguistic Bibliography, EZB, Diadorim, Google Scholar, and Portal de Periódicos da CAPES.

Please note that submitted articles must be in accordance with the "Submission Guidelines" of Linha D'Água: https://www.revistas.usp.br/linhadagua/about/submissions

The thematic issue will be published in August, 2023.

Atualização da plataforma de publicação de Linha d'Água

2019-01-10

No início de agosto de 2018, o Sistema Integrado de Bibliotecas da Universidade de São Paulo /SIBi atualizou a plataforma de publicações de periódicos da Universidade, Open Journal Systems/ OJS. A mudança tem como objetivo oferecer a autores, avaliadores, editores um ambiente mais interativo tornando o processo editorial mais rápido no envio dos textos até sua publicação.

O processo de submissão dos artigos sofreu alterações.Os autores na revista, ao acessarem o site da Linha d'Água para submeter o artigo, são direcionados a uma área interna da plataforma, onde estão disponíveis todos os formulários e instruções de submissão, e por onde o envio de arquivos será realizado. Toda a comunicação com os editores, da submissão à publicação, pode agora ser realizada nessa dessa área interna da plataforma com grande agilidade.

Caso alguém se depare com algum problema no funcionamento no espaço digital, estamos às ordens e para isso basta entrar em contato conosco no email
