Meeting Description: 

“Language Contact through Time and Space” (CoTiSp) is an international and
interdisciplinary conference focusing on the processes and outcomes of contact
between people(s) and languages. The conference aims at bringing together
scholars working on different languages with the goal of stressing both
general phenomena of language contact as well as specific features in a
comparative approach.

Insights from diachronic and synchronic language contact research have
essential linguistic and societal implications, particularly considering
current global migration streams. The contributions to the conference will
thus especially focus on past and present contact scenarios between languages
of unbalanced political and symbolic power. We are particularly interested in
language contact settings involving Romance languages, Semitic languages, and
English(es).

The conference will be followed up by a publication of the talks in the form
of an edited collection.
