The time is almost upon us to finalize panels for the American Association of Geographers' Annual Meeting, and the Linguistic Geography sessions pioneered by Catherine Lee will be making their fourth appearance. Please consider joining in! Here’s our abstract
for the sessions:</p>

<p style="margin-right:0px; margin-left:0px; font-size:15px; line-height:normal; font-family:Helvetica; color:rgb(33,33,33)">
"Language is often shaped by space, and our ideas of space are in turn conveyed through language. The interaction between the two remains relevant to scholars from a variety of disciplines including cultural geography, linguistic anthropology, sociology, and
political science. This interdisciplinary session examines different ways in which landscape and language are connected, methods for analyzing their relationship, and the impact they have on our understanding of the world.</p>

</p>
<p style="margin-right:0px; margin-left:0px; font-size:15px; line-height:normal; font-family:Helvetica; color:rgb(33,33,33)">
Topics include language and space, linguistic landscapes (language use in public spaces), language and power, ethnophysiography, toponymy, dialectology, linguistic cartography, and the representation of places in discourse. Papers that engage with the conference
theme of Geographies of Human Rights are encouraged."</p>
