Linguistic Field(s): History of Linguistics 

Call Deadline: 20-Jun-2019 

Meeting Description:

After the two successful conferences in 2015 and 2017, we are pleased to
invite scholars interested in the history of linguistic ideas developed
alongside with different ideologies in different times once more to Georgia.

200 years ago, in 1819, Rasmus Rask after his well-known work “Investigation
of the Origin of the Old Norse or Icelandic Language” (1818), traveled to St.
Petersburg and Tbilisi (1819). 
During this travel he wrote a paper in German on the Languages and Literatures
of Norway, Iceland Sweden and Finland (1819). After that Rasmus Rask travelled
in Persia, India and Ceylon. He wrote very important works on the authenticity
of the Zend language and on the method of expressing the sounds of the Indian
Languages in European characters. These works of Rasmus Rask created the
strong basis for the historical-comparative linguistics. Due to this reason
our conference is dedicated to Rasmus Rask and 200 years history of
comparative and areal linguistics.
