Female Sociolinguists

[Joan Pujolar Cos]

Hello,

An important figure in European Sociolinguistics was Brigitte 
Schliebenlange (1943-2000). I think she was based in Tübingen, 
Germany.

I am not the person to gloss her enormous work. Some German 
colleagues may be able to. In any case, she died while I was 
participating in a special issue of the journal Grenzgänge, number 
14 (2000), where Jürgen Erfurt (based in Frankfurt) included a 
brief gloss (in German) of her academic trajectory.

Fins aviat,
