In the 1950s, research on language learning was dominated by behaviourism, which viewed language as a system of linguistic rules and patterns. Learners were encouraged to imitate and memorise words and sentences heard or read, and received reinforcement from their environment—rewards for correct responses and punishment for errors. Language acquisition was thus explained as a […]

English linguistics is in the middle of a transformation. That’s nothing new. This field has always been quick to adapt, but the current shift may be different in scale. It mirrors the broader digitalization that is shaping science, education, and everyday life. It’s driven not only by new AI‑based tools that have changed how we […]

When is interruption an art form? Short answer: the eighteenth-century novel. Interrupting another speaker gets a bad rap: common charges lodged against listeners who jump the queue maintain that interrupters are pushy, rude, impatient, or, at the least, distracting. Certainly, the first generation of emerging novel theorists directed similar rhetoric against the cacophony of tale-tellers […]

Everyone who discovers a new species nowadays has the right to name it. This name has to conform to rather intricate rules established by international professional associations. These conventions can be traced back to the eighteenth century, when Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778) introduced a taxonomic nomenclature based on a binomial system: every species receives a two-part […]

Other than Paul, no writer has had greater influence on the theology of justification than Augustine. In the preface to his Latin works, Martin Luther famously narrated his discovery of the justifying righteousness of God: first he says he read Paul’s Letter to the Romans, but the very next author he turned to for confirmation […]
