New Journal: Writing Systems Research

There is a new journal on writing systems coming up.

新しい文字・表記体系の専門誌が発行されます。


Description/紹介:
Writing Systems Research will provide an invaluable source of information for anyone involved in writing systems research, providing a unique selection of the latest developments in all relevant disciplines. For instance, informing psychologists about the latest thinking in linguistic analysis of writing systems, educators about the latest findings on the cognitive consequences of different writing systems, and linguists about developments in the neurolinguistics of reading and writing. In particular, the journal will reflect the range of writing systems across the globe in a balanced way. [Quoted from the publisher's website]

Restarting Posting/更新再開

It's a shame I've been away from this blog for 10 months, missing out lots of interesting stuff related to writing systems. I'll try to get back on track and perhaps write a few posts about past events that are too significant to let go unmentioned. Many thanks to the readers.

気が付けば10ヶ月もの間ブログの更新を怠っていました。この間、たくさんの文字・表記に関する興味深い話題を取り逃してしまい、情けない気持ちでいっぱいです。今日から更新を再開し、できれば過去数ヶ月にあった関連深い出来事についても取り上げたいと考えています。今後とも当ブログをよろしくお願いいたします。
