[Linganth] Welcome to the EASA Linguistic Anthropology Network

[Graan, Andrew]

Dear Colleagues,

Are you a linguistic anthropologist who lives, works, or researches in Europe? Then please consider participating in the EASA Linguistic Anthropology Network (ELAN)<https://easaonline.org/networks/elan/>.  Founded in 2018, ELAN fosters a space for information sharing and collaboration among scholars interested in linguistic anthropology and related fields.  ELAN also seeks to promote linguistic anthropological research and teaching across European academic institutions.  As our name suggests, ELAN is an official network of the European Association of Social Anthropologists<https://easaonline.org/networks/elan/>.


Subscribe to the ELAN Listserv
It’s free and easy to join ELAN.  Simply sign up for our mailing list and monthly email digest at: http://lists.easaonline.org/listinfo.cgi/elan-easaonline.org. The email digest compiles information on the latest news, events, job openings, and publications related to linguistic anthropology.

You can also follow ELAN on Facebook at: facebook.com/elan.easa<http://facebook.com/elan.easa>


Participate in the ELAN Works-In-Progress Workshop
Now in its second year, the ELAN work-in-progress workshop facilitates monthly online meetings for ELAN members to share and discuss pre-circulated works-in-progress with like-minded colleagues from across Europe and beyond. Interested scholars are welcome and encouraged to participate in workshop discussions.  It is a wonderful way to stay abreast of the field, to meet and support colleagues, and to receive feedback on your own writing.

A few presentation slots are still available in winter/spring 2022.  So, if you have an article or chapter draft that you'd like to workshop with sympathetic peers, SIGN UP for the monthly ELAN Works-In-Progress Workshop: https://docs.google.com/.../1t.../edit<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1t-UeFI6bFoGbdVPuvze92KIWafwT-02aBdyD-zH-RvU/edit?fbclid=IwAR0NHlXylBLU1iBL3O6h49ZL0cetQM3Z3ktMGhVF3JS5qjiZ1I6zAT3ELVU>
