What do we need to consider in order to understand the innovation and propagation of phonological change, and to reconstruct past phonological states? The Sixth Edinburgh Symposium on Historical Phonology will offer an opportunity to discuss fundamental questions in historical phonology as well as specific analyses of historical data.
Plenary speaker: Shelece Easterday (University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa)
The invited speaker will address foundational issues in the discipline over two one-hour slots, one on each day of the symposium.
Submission instructions:
Please submit your abstracts via EasyAbs. Abstracts should not exceed one A4 or US Letter page with 2.5 cm or 1 inch margins in a 12pt font. The file should not include any information identifying the author(s). All examples and references in the abstract should be included on the one single page, but it is enough, when referring to previous work, to cite ‘Author (Date)’ in the body of the abstract — you do not need to give the full reference at the end of the abstract. Please do not submit an abstract if it goes over one page — it will be rejected.
Submissions open: June 10, 2023 - July 31, 2023
Abstract review period: Aug. 1, 2023 - Aug. 31, 2023
