- Farzad Sharifian (Persian: فرزاد شریفیان) was a pioneer of cultural linguistics and held the Chair in Cultural Linguistics at Monash University. He developed a theoretical and an analytical framework of cultural cognition, cultural conceptualisations, and language, which draw on and expands the analytical tools and theoretical advancements in several disciplines and sub-disciplines, including cognitive psychology, anthropology, distributed cognition, and complexity science. The theoretical/analytical frameworks and their applications in several areas of applied linguistics including intercultural communication, cross-cultural/intercultural pragmatics, World Englishes, Teaching English as an International Language (TEIL), and political discourse analysis are the subject of Sharifian’s monographs entitled Cultural Conceptualisations and Language (John Benjamins, 2011) and Cultural Linguistics (John Benjamins, 2017). These books have widely been recognised as laying "solid theoretical and analytical grounds for what can be recognised as Cultural Linguistics". (Alexandra Bagasheva, in the journal of Language and Cognition, Vol. 4:3 (2012), pp. 243–249). Professor Sharifian was the founding Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Language and Culture, and the Series Editor of Cultural Linguistics book series (Springer), and the founding Series Editor of Routledge Advances in Teaching English as an International Language (Routledge). He published articles in many edited books and in more than 25 leading international journals. His awards and honours included the prestigious Humboldt Fellowship for Experienced Researchers, from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation], Germany. (en)
