Meeting Description:

The international conference Modality in historical stages: methods and
resources for investigating modality aims at bringing together researchers
working with different methodologies and resources on modality in historical
stages. In recent years, there has been an exponential increase in the number
of resources and methods that can be used to answer a research question. The
colloquium aims to take stock of the choices related to both resources and
methods, addressing questions such as:

How is methodology shaped by extant resources?

How are resources selected, adapted or set up in light of research questions?

Which tools can be useful in exploring resources such as corpora and
databases?

The conference will thus provide a better understanding of the issues related
to the choice of resources and methods for a research question as well as a
less fragmented view of these, given the abundance of tools and corpora
currently available to researchers.


Call for Papers:

Papers concerning modality in any language and in any theoretical framework
are welcome. The addressed research questions can have both a diachronic and a
synchronic perspective and focus on one or more historical stages of one or
more languages. In view of the openness of the call we ask authors to define
in brief how they use the term ‘modality’.

Anonymous abstracts (maximum 500 words, excluded bibliographical references)
should be sent to modhista2022 at gmail.com
