The online symposium Historical Urban Vernaculars and Supralocalisation Processes takes place on zoom on 19 and 20 November 2021.
Org.: Prof. Anita Auer (section d'anglais)
Historical urban vernaculars play an important role in the explanation of supralocalisation processes and thus the standardisation of written languages. Some of the factors that illustrate the seminal role of written language produced in cities for the explanation of standardisation processes are the higher literacy rates, the existence of religious and civic writing centres, the development of book printing, and dialect and language contact through migration and trade.
To shed more light on historical urban vernaculars and supralocalisation processes in different languages and to promote cross-linguistic discussions, the Emerging Standards team cordially invites researchers working on historical urban vernaculars and related topics to submit an abstract to the 1.5 day symposium Historical Urban Vernaculars and Supralocalisation Processes.
