[Edling] 'Language on a pedestal: Ideological valorisation of language, and its effects' - Mon 9 Dec, Jyväskylä, Finland (also live-streamed)

[Dave Sayers]

This workshop (in person, live-streamed,* and filmed for later hosting online) brings 
together researchers from across Europe to discuss ideological valorisation of 
language in a range of contexts - international orientation towards particular 
national varieties; within nations the elevation of 'standard' forms; ideologies 
within government language policy; and people's everyday attitudinal tussles between 
contemporary shibboleths. Languages covered include Dutch, English, Welsh, and 
Australian Sign Language. Methodologies include textual policy analysis, attitude 
surveys, ethnography, and systematic review.

The purpose is to share insights from different linguistic contexts, where dialogue 
is lacking; and to provide inspiration for interlingual and mixed-methods research. 
The event will be live-streamed and filmed for later access.
