Meeting Description: 

Greek is one of the few languages in the world with an uninterrupted literary
tradition spanning more than three thousand years. Nearly all periods of Greek
are well-documented by large amounts of texts. This makes Greek an especially
interesting corpus for the study of language change. However, post-classical
Greek has been less in the focus of research. After two similar conferences in
Mainz and Riga, PGCC aims to bring together specialists of Greek working on
the history of Greek after the 5th/4th c. BC, addressing various research
questions ranging from methodological problems (e.g. periodization), questions
of language standardization and register, text transmission and the analysis
of individual linguistic features appearing or disappearing in the
post-classical language to the situation of post-classical Greek in Digital
Humanities.
