<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi everyone, <br><br></div>I just wanted to inform you all that the abstract deadline for the American Association of Geographers Annual Meeting has been extended to November 8th. We will be accepting abstracts for the Linguistic Geography sessions until November 8th as well. We have some very interesting talks lined up already, but the more, the merrier!<br><br></div>Here are the some details for the sessions:<br><br>Language and geography interact in many ways, and at many scales.
Scholars from fields such as cultural geography, linguistic
anthropology, sociology, computer science, and political science share
in the endeavor to understand the relationship between language and
space. This series of interdisciplinary sessions examines both the role
of landscape in language, and the role of language in landscape.<br><br>Topics
include (but are not limited to): language and space, geosemantics,
linguistic landscapes (language use in public spaces), language and
power, ethnophysiography, toponymy, dialectology, and linguistic
cartography.<div><div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div><br></div><div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div>Catherine Lee<br><br></div>Department of Linguistics<br>University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa<br>
