This is the fourth summer school organised by the Historical   
Sociolinguistics Network (HISON) and it
will offer classes by leading experts on modern and historical  
sociolinguists.

This year we will be in the fine city of Brugge / Bruges - whose city  
centre is a UNESCO world heritage
site.

Our teachers this year will be:

Ana Deumert (University of Cape Town)
Historical Sociolinguistics in A Colonial World, African Perspectives

Martin Durrell (University of Manchester)
Linguistic standardisation and the nation in Europe

Susan Fitzmaurice (University of Sheffield)
The uses of Social Networks Analysis for social description in  
Historical Sociolinguistics

Anthony Lodge (University of St Andrews)
Aspects of the sociolinguistic history of Paris

Terttu Nevalainen (University of Helsinki)
Historical sociolinguistics as corpus linguistics

Wim Vandenbussche (Vrije Universiteit Brussel)
Back to the sources . Hands-on research, problems and mysteries in  
archives for young researchers.

Hans Van de Velde (Universiteit Utrecht)
When apparent becomes real. The interplay of synchronic and diachronic  
phonological variation in
Dutch.


There will be six hours of classes per day, so there is plenty of time  
to explore the city. You will have
the opportunity to present your own research at a special session and  
there will be an excursion for the
historically-touristically minded.

The school will last for one week and the cost of 350 Euros includes  
accommodation, tuition, and an
excursion. If you register and pay in full before May 1st, 2010, we  
will give you a discount of 50 Euros,
i.e. you will only pay 300 Euros.

Please note that there are only 40 places available.

Registration is now open at  www.bris.ac.uk/german/hison/summerschool2010
