Meeting Description: 

Given that there will be a number of people who are interested in historical phonology in Edinburgh the day before the Second Edinburgh Symposium on Historical Phonology, we have organised a satellite workshop on the fringes of the symposium (on the afternoon before the symposium starts) devoted to the history of the discipline. This workshop is intended to be a relatively informal venue for discussion of a number of issues related to the history of historical phonology, and all the speakers in the session were invited to take part. It is not a formal part of the symposium and everyone is welcome to attend.

Details about how to attend the session will be posted on the website:
