Controversies in the history of linguistics
From the beginnings of the teaching of classical or even modern languages up to the most recent times, there have always been polemical disputes between individual authors or even among representatives of entire schools, which could be reflected in many ways. Even if, in retrospect, not all controversies necessarily brought about the effects desired by their proponents, the area of conflict between long-established and novel considerations in the history of linguistics seems particularly worthy of investigation.
In addition, we also cordially invite papers dedicated to any topic in the History of Linguistics.
Presentations should not exceed the maximum duration of 20 minutes (allowing for 10 minutes of discussion). Proposals should be submitted by e-mail (sgdsXXXII@utad.pt) no later than 15 march 2023 and should contain the following information:
- Name
- Institutional affiliation (if any)
- email address
- and abstract (ca. 250 words, written in the language the paper will be presented in).
Notification of acceptance will be made by 31 March 2023.
Please note that the 2023 Annual Colloquium 2023 of the Henry Sweet Society for the History of Linguistic Ideas (HSS) will take place in Vila Real from 4-6 September 2023. Active participation in both Colloquia is cordially invited and will be possible at a discounted price (https://sgdsxxxii.cel.utad.pt/venue-info).
