Meeting Description: 

Dichotomization is one of the most salient features which characterize the historical approaches to the transition from Latin to Romance languages. It has influenced both theoretical models and methodological strategies. Such approaches often bear witness to a simplified relationship between Latinity and Romanity; between written and oral traditions; between the norm and what deviates of it. But does this duality exist in reality? Is it advisable to separate Latin and Vulgar Latin? Must one consider the birth of the Romance languages as a continuity from Latin or rather as a breaking point? From what moment is a language born or does it die? How should one approach the oral language? What is the role of the written language? Where is the border between the active speaking of and the passive understanding of a language? What is the status of texts?

The first objective of this encounter is to situate the problematic of the transition from Latin to Romance languages within the larger perspective of language variability. This is in order to accentuate better the continuum between the research fields of Latinists and Romanists on the one hand, and in order to coprehend better the idées reçues kept alive by the weight of the tradition on the other hand. The option was taken to adopt a broader angle of approach by bringing together specialists who approach the field from different perspectives, those working on some specific linguistic aspects belonging to diasystems which differ in time and in space. By doing so, a history of variation can be laid bare, and at the same time, the modalities of transition from Latin to Romance languages can be redefined.
