    New #OpenAccess #Journal to Launch Following Resignation of Editorial Team from #NaturalLanguageSemantics

    Posted by Professor Caroline Edwards on 2 June 2026

    "The #OpenLibraryOfHumanities is pleased to announce the launch of a new diamond open access journal in linguistics, following the resignation of the editorial team of Natural Language Semantics (#NLS) from #SpringerNature. The editors are launching a new journal, Semantics of Natural Languages , with the Open Library of Humanities.

    "The editorial team’s resignation follows ongoing concerns about Springer Nature putting pressure on editors to accept and publish more articles. Commercial publishers like Springer Nature are increasingly using this tactic to grow the revenue they receive for open access publishing via Article Processing Charges. The resigning editors have the support of the editorial board of Natural Language Semantics, including the original founders of that journal, which was established in 1993 and has long been recognised as one of the leading journals in formal semantics and theoretical linguistics.

    "Semantics of Natural Languages is launched at OLH as the intellectual heir to Natural Language Semantics, which was originally published by Kluwer Academic Publishers before its acquisition by Springer in 2003. Semantics of Natural Languages is a linguistics journal dedicated to the study of meaning in natural languages, with a particular focus on the relation between meaning and linguistic structure. While the journal is firmly grounded in semantics, it welcomes contributions that draw on insights from related fields such as #logic, #PhilosophyOfLanguage, #psycholinguistics and cognition, #typology and the core domains of #linguistics — provided the work is specifically directed toward linguists and advances our understanding of semantics.

    "OLH’s Executive Director, Professor Caroline Edwards, said of the move: 'It’s fantastic to be supporting another research community to regain editorial control of its journal and leave Springer Nature. At OLH, we’re seeing a growing number of furious academics ready to withdraw their labour from unscrupulous commercial publishers like Springer Nature. We’re excited to work with the editors and authors at Semantics of Natural Languages and give the journal a positive future.'

    "The editors of Semantics of Natural Languages commented: 'We’re grateful to be able to work with the OLH to make our journal accessible for free to all $authors and $readers. #AcademicJournals should serve academics, #NotForProfitPublishers, and we consider the #DiamondOpenAccess model the future of academic publishing. We are proud to join this movement and help to expand its presence in semantics and linguistics more generally.'

    "The Open Library of Humanities is proud to provide the long-term funding and support needed to bring this journal into diamond open access. This support is made possible by the university libraries, funding councils, and library consortia that collectively support the OLH.

    "About #OLH: The Open Library of Humanities is an award-winning, academic-led publisher of 36 diamond open access journals based at #Birkbeck, #UniversityOfLondon. With initial funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and subsequent support from Arcadia, a charitable fund, the platform covers its costs by payments from an international library consortium rather than any author fee. This funding mechanism enables equitable open access in the #humanities disciplines, with charges neither to readers nor authors."

  6. In his book Aboutness, Stephen Yablo gives a definition of 'being true about'. A sentence can be false, but sill be true about part of its subject matter, and Yablo tries to capture this using a possible worlds analysis.

  11. Looking for examples for a paper. Can think of words which:
    1. were originally just words with a normal meaning (in English)
    2. for a brief time had a slang usage meaning something else
    3. are/were still used in the original usage, even though the slang usage has now died away?

  20. Accidental ontologist. 🧐 I am madly working on a couple of new ontology books. As a follow-up to A Language Insufficiency Hypothesis, I noticed that the challenge is deeper than language; it's ontological. In my first book on the topic, I focus on the societal problems. In the next, I'll focus on a broader object reality.

    (In my field, a 'baptism' is just any giving a name to a thing -- this is not a theology paper!)

    I develop the first full account of baptisms/dubbings in the tradition of Kripkean causal theories of reference. That is, I explain how it works when we give names to things.

  29. Quantum mechanics may not be strange at all. What fails is a childhood heuristic we quietly promoted to metaphysics.

    👉 philosophics.blog/2026/01/25/t

    Schrödinger’s cat was a reductio. We turned it into an explanation.

    This is not a new interpretation of quantum mechanics. The essay argues that much of 'quantum weirdness'' is heuristic overreach, not metaphysical scandal.
