West Meets East

The theme of the 2020 Conference is ”West meets East”, our aim being to celebrate European lexicography from Portugal in the West to Georgia in the East, and world lexicography across the globe from West to East.

ICHLL 2022 embraces a broad range of topics and disciplinary approaches to the history of dictionaries, historical lexicology, historical lexicography and critical and humanistic lexicography (each of which can include present day practice, method, and production). We therefore call for contributions with an emphasis on qualitative scholarship as well as approaches making use of tools from the digital humanities, but papers on any topic within the histories of lexicography and lexicology are also welcomed.
