Call for Papers - Only summer school students can participate in the workshop and present their work - The summer school workshop will also include invited talks.
The 7th Naxos Summer School on Language Variation and Change in Ancient and Medieval Europe will be organizing a workshop on “Linguistic Diachronies: A Contrastive Approach".
Abstracts that approach language change and diachrony from any perspective are welcome, including: historical morpho-syntax, historical phonology, historical pragmatics, historical sociolinguistics.
The idea of the workshop is to offer our summer schools participants interested in a systematic study of language change and diachrony, the opportunity to present their ongoing research or the results of their studies on language change and diachrony. We encourage papers of both data- and theory-oriented approaches. Presentations will last 20 minutes, allowing 10 minutes for discussion.
