CALL:
The conference Linguistic Contact in Ancient Greece: Diachrony and Synchrony / Contacts linguistiques en Grèce ancienne : diachronie et synchrony (CoLiGA) will bring together specialists in different ancient languages and in Ancient Greek dialectology, with a view to combining the analysis of language contact between Ancient Greek and other languages and the study of the interrelations of Greek dialectal varieties. The organizers of this event are confident that a complementary regard will broaden the horizon of both research fields, and will also open unexplored paths in the study of two fundamentally parallel phenomena. The conference will feature the following keynote speakers:
Dan Dana (CNRS / ANHIMA) Philippa Steele (University of Cambridge) Olga Tribulato (University “Ca’ Foscari” Venice) Lucien C. van Beek (Leiden University)
The conference welcomes contributions dealing with inter-dialectal contact in Ancient Greek and linguistic contact between Greek and other Ancient languages. Those wishing to participate with a paper (20 minutes followed by 10 minutes of discussion) are invited to submit their proposals before Friday, 31 January 2020 at the conference website (https://coliga.sciencesconf.org/submission/submit).
Proposals should be presented in one of the languages of the conference (French, English or Spanish), and sent in two anonymized files (.DOCX and .PDF) with a maximum extension of 3000 characters, spaces and bibliographic references included. Only Unicode fonts should be used.
The authors of the selected proposals will be notified by Friday, 14 March 2020 and will be invited to send a final abstract of their papers by Monday, 15 May 2020.
