This collective volume is devoted to the exploration of the intricate relationships between argumentative practices and the linguistic, discursive and cognitive underpinnings of their verbal realisation. The volume gathers a selection of 11 contributions that were presented during the inaugural edition of the Argumentation and Language conference series (ARGAGE), which took place at the University of Lausanne in September 2015. The thematic unity of this volume therefore stems from a common commitment, from all contributors, to the adoption of a linguistically-informed perspective applied to the study of argumentative practices.
