Call for Papers:

For a themed issue in Diachronica on ‘The diachrony of tone:
connecting the field’

Theme editors: Sandra Auderset (University of Bern), Rikker Dockum
(Swarthmore College), Ryan Gehrmann (Payap University)

 Comparatively few linguists focus on the diachronic study of tone.
Individual specialists tend to sort themselves into regional and
language family niches, leaving the field fragmented with little
dialogue or cross-pollination between interested scholars. Given that
the diachronic study of tone is in need of intensified research, the
absence of exchange between scholars creates a further impediment to
progress in this area.
This themed issue aims to address this by bringing together
contributions from linguists from different regions and language
families who work on tone diachrony. Papers should address topics in
the diachronic study of tone, either in a single language, a language
(sub-)family, a geographical region, or cross-linguistically.
