Meeting Description:

The North American Research Network in Historical Sociolinguistics (NARNiHS)
is holding its Third Annual Meeting, Friday, January 8 - Tuesday, January 12,
2021.

In light of the current global health emergency, our 2021 Annual Meeting will
be taking place as an *online event*. This presents a great opportunity for
scholars in historical sociolinguistics from all over the world to participate
as presenters and/or attendees without the limitations imposed by
international travel, and we encourage our fellow historical sociolinguists,
and scholars from related fields, from Europe, Asia, Africa, Oceania, and
Central and South America (in addition to North America) to join us for our
Third Annual Meeting.

As NARNiHS is a Sister Society of the Linguistic Society of America (LSA),
this meeting will partially overlap with the 2021 LSA Annual Meeting.

NARNiHS welcomes studies in all areas of historical sociolinguistics, which is
understood as the application/development of sociolinguistic theories, models,
and methods for the study of historical language variation and change over
time, or more broadly, the study of the interaction of language and society in
historical periods and from historical perspectives. Thus, a wide range of
linguistic areas, subdisciplines, and methodologies easily find their place
within the field, and we encourage submission of abstracts that reflect this
broad scope.

Second Call for Papers: 

***Still two weeks to submit! ***

In light of the current global health emergency, our 2021 Annual Meeting will
take place as an *online event*. This presents a great opportunity for
scholars in historical sociolinguistics from all over the world to participate
as presenters and/or attendees without the limitations imposed by
international travel, and we encourage our fellow historical sociolinguists,
and scholars from related fields, from across the globe to join us for our
Third Annual Meeting.

As NARNiHS is a Sister Society of the Linguistic Society of America (LSA),
this meeting will partially overlap with the 2021 LSA Annual Meeting.

Deadline for receipt of abstracts:
Wednesday, 30 September 2020, 11:59 PM US Eastern Time.

Late abstracts will not be considered.

NARNiHS welcomes abstracts in all areas of historical sociolinguistics, which
is understood as the application/development of sociolinguistic theories,
models, and methods for the study of historical language variation and change
over time, or more broadly, the study of the interaction of language and
society in historical periods and from historical perspectives. Thus, a wide
range of linguistic areas, subdisciplines, and methodologies easily find their
place within the field, and we encourage submission of abstracts that reflect
this broad scope.

Abstracts will be accepted for 20-minute presentations to be delivered
''live'' through an online video-conferencing platform.

Abstracts should clearly articulate how the research in the presentation
advances knowledge in the field of historical sociolinguistics. Authors should
also be explicit about which theoretical frameworks, methodological protocols,
and analytical strategies are being applied or critiqued; and data sources and
examples should be sufficiently (if briefly) presented in the abstract so as
to allow reviewers a full understanding of the scope and claims of the
research.

General Requirements:
1) Abstracts must be submitted electronically, using the following link:
http://linguistlist.org/easyabs/narnihs2021 .

2) Authors may submit a maximum of two abstracts: one single-author abstract
and one co-authored abstract.

3) Authors may not submit identical abstracts for presentation at the NARNiHS
meeting and at the LSA Annual Meeting or one of the other LSA Sister Societies
(ADS, ANS, NAAHoLS, SCiL, SPCL, SSILA).

4) After an abstract has been submitted, no changes of author, title, or
wording of the abstract, other than those due to typographical errors, are
permitted. If accepted, authors will be contacted for a final version for the
abstract booklet.

5) Papers must be delivered as projected in the abstract or represent bona
fide developments of the same research.

6) Authors are expected to attend the conference and present their own papers.

7) Presentations will be delivered via a video-conferencing platform, most
likely Zoom. Technical details and instructions regarding the platform for our
NARNiHS Annual Meeting will be sent to authors in due time.

8) After acceptance, authors will be given an option to have their live
presentation recorded during the meeting and archived for future online
viewing.

Abstract Format Guidelines:
1) Abstracts must be submitted in PDF format.

2) Abstracts must fit on one standard 8.5×11 inch page, with margins no
smaller than 1 inch and a font style and size no smaller than Times New Roman
12 point. All additional content (visualizations, trees, tables, figures,
captions, examples, and references) must fit on a single (one) additional
page. No exceptions to these requirements are allowed.

3) Your name should only appear in the online form accompanying your abstract
submission. If you identify yourself in any way on the abstract itself
(including indirect identification, e.g. ''In Bly (1992)...I''), the abstract
will be rejected without being evaluated.
