Join our online reading group to discuss hot-off-the-press publications in historical sociolinguistics with the authors!

The fourth session of "Reading with NARNiHS" is taking place on Monday, 29 June 2026, at 10:00 am US Eastern time / 4:00 pm European Central time and features Christine Wallis with her recent work in historical pragmatics, politeness, and identity work using intriguing material culture data from postal practices in 18th-century England.

Reading with NARNiHS is a vibrant 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, and there will 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!
