Linguistic Field(s): Historical Linguistics; Phonology 

Meeting Description: 

The Edinburgh Symposium on Historical Phonology is a regular conference that
takes place every other year (usually in December) at the University of
Edinburgh, hosted by the department of Linguistics and English Language and
the School of Informatics.

The next symposium is the fifth in the series, taking place (online) in
December 2021.

What do we need to consider in order to understand the innovation and
propagation of phonological change, and to reconstruct past phonological
states? The Fifth Edinburgh Symposium on Historical Phonology will offer an
opportunity to discuss fundamental questions in historical phonology as well
as specific analyses of historical data.

The symposium is organised under the auspices of the Angus McIntosh Centre for
Historical Linguistics and hosted online by the Department of Linguistics and
English Language and the School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh.

There will be no invited speaker this year, given that the conference will
need to be online: we don’t think long online talks work very well. We will be
organising some special events during the conference, however, including a
forum to discuss fundamental questions in historical phonology, and
opportunities for people to chat with each other informally. We will advertise
these when the programme is announced.

The conference will take place around 6 December, 2021, with specific dates to
be announced later.
 

Program:

We are delighted to announce that the full details for the upcoming Fifth
Edinburgh Symposium on Historical Phonology are now available:

http://www.lel.ed.ac.uk/symposium-on-historical-phonology/eshp5/

The conference will take place online from 6th-8th December, and registration
for non-presenters is now open. There is a link to the registration site on
the ESHP5 website. Registration is free and 300 places are available (if more
people apply than that, we will allocate places on a first-come-first-served
basis).
