Review: Selected Proceedings of the 13th Hispanic Linguistics Symposium

In a Linguist List review of Selected Proceedings of the 13th Hispanic Linguistics Symposium, Jason Doroga of the University of Wisconsin-Madison writes, "the editor has chosen a balanced selection of articles that offer compelling and often-times innovative research in the broad areas of Sociolinguistics and Language Variation, Acquisition and Applied Linguistics, Phonology, and Syntax, Semantics and Pragmatics. These proceedings deserve a wide audience, as both the generalist and the specialist will find cogent studies by young researchers and by established scholars alike." He goes on to say, "The overall quality of the papers in this volume is high, and much of what is included here presents new, original data that challenge or refine existing
scholarship."

Review: Selected Proceedings of the 2009 Second Language Research Forum

Christos Pliatsikas has reviewed Selected Proceedings of the 2009 Second Language Research Forum for the Linguist List. He writes,

This volume is highly recommended to researchers in the fields of SLA and psycholinguistics, as well as to students or any other parties that require an up-to-date knowledge of issues in current SLA research. The diversity of this volume guarantees that researchers from a variety of different fields in psycholinguistics will find some interesting experimental findings and suggestions, as well as use them as a starting point for future research.

The full review, including a detailed investigation of each paper, is available on the Linguist List. You can order a library bound copy of the proceedings, or read the papers online, at Cascadilla Proceedings Project.
