Date: 01-Dec-2016 - 02-Dec-2016 
Location: Vercelli, Italy 
Contact: Maria Napoli Miriam Ravetto 
Contact Email: maria.napoli at uniupo.it; miriam.ravettp at uniupo.it 
Meeting URL: http://diana.lett.unipmn.it/bacheca/bilinguismo/ 

Linguistic Field(s): Sociolinguistics 

Meeting Description: 

During this workshop the focus will be on the following issues: 

(i) Whether and to what extent theoretical models developed in modern studies
for the use of a second language (with reference to bilingual communication
and to various expressions of language contact in contemporary linguistic
communities) may help interpret similar phenomena in the past and reconstruct
the corresponding scenarios.

(ii) Whether and to what extent, in turn, the analysis of data attested across
a long time span may contribute to the understanding of contemporary
expressions and contexts of bilingualism and language contact, providing
useful interpretative comparison.
