With apologies, here is a plain text version of the message<br><br>Julia<br><br>New Speakers of Minority Languages: A Dialogue<br>Venue: Celtic and Scottish Studies, University of Edinburgh<br>Friday 30th – Saturday 31st March 2012<br>
<br>Confirmed Keynote Speakers<br><br>Professor Alexandra Jaffe<br>Professor Alan Davies<br><br>This is a one and half day event hosted by Heriot-Watt University and the University of Edinburgh. The aim of the Symposium is to bring together scholars working on “new speakers” of minority languages in different parts of the world where traditional communities of speakers are being eroded. In these contexts, new speakers often emerge as a result of revitalization efforts and more favourable language policies, prompting some individuals to become speakers of the minority language and to invest in its provision for the next generation.<br>
<br>In this Symposium we welcome contributions related to the “new speaker” theme either from a theoretical perspective or/and case studies of new speakers of specific linguistic minorities. These contributions will be included in the programme as individual papers or as part of round table discussions.<br>
