Symposium Advances in Native South American Historical Linguistics
The Symposium "Advances in Native South American Historical Linguistics," which will take place during the 52nd International Congress of Americanists, will gather experts in the historical study of native South American languages, in order to present new findings, assess the present situation, and outline perspectives of future developments in this field of linguistics. Fifteen papers will be
presented, representing a geographic area spanning from the Amazon to
Tierra del Fuego and dealing with topics
such as areal linguistics, reconstruction of
proto-languages, long-range genetic relationships, dialectology, and the
diachronic explanation of synchronic irregularities. Here you will find
information on the Symposium's program and abstracts (also available as a pdf document).
