Linguistic Field(s): History of Linguistics
Call Deadline: 10-Apr-2018
Meeting Description:
We are pleased to announce that the sixth
biennial conference of the Society for the History of Linguistics in the Pacific
(SHLP) is to be held on December 13-14 2018 at the University of Adelaide.
The
theme of the conference – “philological fieldwork” – focuses on the theory, practice
and rhetoric surrounding the documentation and analysis of “exotic” languages from
the 19th to the early 20th century.
It is expected that invited
international researchers will attend this sixth SHLP conference.
Call for
Papers:
Abstracts, of less than 250 words, addressing any historical aspect
of the collection and organisation of linguistic data are welcome. Abstracts should
be sent to Clara Stockigt at the address below no later than the 30 April.
Selected
papers treating the history of the development of linguistic understanding will be
published in a collected volume.
By broadening the research focus of SHLP
beyond the Pacific and focusing on international developments in linguistics,
anthropology, history, and history and philosophy of science the conference aims to
enhance the understanding of the international context in which Australian languages
were described.
If your paper addresses any aspect of the history of the
development of linguistic understanding, and you would like it to be considered for
publication, please include references with an abstract that is no longer than 500
words. Abstracts should be sent to Clara Stockigt at the address below no later than
the 30 April.
Note that the conference dates have been chosen to directly
follow the conference of the Australian Linguistics Society being held close by at
The University of South Australia 10th-12th December.
We look forward to
meeting in Adelaide.
