[Ads-l] Reading with NARNiHS (historical sociolinguistics reading group) -- Session #2

[Lauersdorf, Mark R.]

Reading with NARNiHS
[Reading Group of the North American Research Network in Historical Sociolinguistics]

Join our online reading group to discuss timely publications in historical sociolinguistics with the authors!  The second session of "Reading with NARNiHS" is taking place on Wednesday, 25 March 2026 at 12:00 pm US Eastern time / 5:00 pm European Central time and features Anita Auer with her recent work on the "verticalization model" of language shift in historical sociolinguistics.

Reading with NARNiHS is an exciting new venue for engagement with cutting-edge work in historical sociolinguistics, accessible to researchers at all levels.  Reading with NARNiHS combines aspects of "meet the author" + "author interview" + "authors read their works" + "classic reading group discussion" as we interact together with new scholarship and its authors.

Anna Havinga will be our moderator/discussant, and there will also be plenty of time for your questions.  So, please come along for an enriching one-hour exchange about the most current topics in historical sociolinguistics!
