The Bollettino Linguistico Campano is a peer-reviewed journal directed by Nicola De Blasi and Rosanna Sornicola. It is published semiannually by Liguori since 2002.
The journal aims to offer a better understanding of the past and the present of Campania from a linguistic perspective and with the contribution of scholars from different backgrounds. Although the focus is on Campania and Southern Italy, papers on other areas are welcomed, also on a Romance language comparative base. The Bollettino’s research interests cover linguistic issues that could be called “historical” in the broadest sense (a designation which also includes contemporary history) as well as theoretical and methodological issues. It is intended to be a forum for work in the fields of Dialectology, Language History, Historical Linguistics, and General Linguistics, and a laboratory for the integrated study of diachrony and synchrony. In order to fulfill these purposes linguistic research should not be isolated within the wider context of “Humanities”: the journal encourages collaboration between linguists and specialists in other disciplines, especially historians, but also geographers, anthropologists, and sociologists.
