Subject: Call for abstracts – Data in Historical Linguistics 2025 seminars


We are pleased to announce that the call for abstracts for the second
series of the Data in Historical Linguistics seminar series is now
open. This seminar series will be run by King’s College London, and is
aimed at PhD students and early career researchers. The purpose of
this seminar series is to bring together researchers working on
historical linguistics with a quantitative approach, and to discuss
current avenues of research in this topic. We hope that these seminars
will nurture international collaboration and establish academic ties
among researchers working on similar topics in this field.

Seminars will start in January 2025 and will last one hour (30 minutes
of presentation + 30 minutes of discussion). All seminars will be held
remotely via Microsoft Teams at 5pm GMT. They will provisionally be
held once a month on a Monday, but this may increase up to twice a
month depending on the number of speakers.

We welcome proposals from current PhD students working on Historical
Linguistics, with an emphasis on quantitative approaches. Abstracts of
a maximum of 400 words should include the description (language, size,
object, methodology) of a dataset. They should also specify whether
the analysis was conducted manually or computationally.

Abstracts and personal information (name, surname, affiliation, email
address) should be sent to either of the two convenors, Andrea Farina
(andrea.farina at kcl.ac.uk) or Mathilde Bru (mathilde.1.bru at kcl.ac.uk).

Deadline for the abstracts is 6th December 2024.

All this information is readily available at our website.
