Meeting Description:

Methods in Dialectology is a triennial conference that traditionally alternates between Canada and Europe. Originally a forum for the discussion of methodological issues in dialect research, Methods conferences have progressively extended their topical range and now include the whole spectrum of regional, historical, and social language variation. The Methods series welcomes contributions investigating any of the world’s languages.

The theme for Methods XVII is (Dia)Lects in the 21st Century.

We are delighted to announce that the following colleagues have agreed to give a plenary at Methods XVII:
– Jenny Cheshire (Queen Mary, London)
– Karen Corrigan (Newcastle)
– Damaris Nübling (Mainz)
– Sali Tagliamonte (Toronto)
