As with earlier conferences in this series we seek to bring together the expertise of scholars and professional dictionary makers. This time, to mark the 200th anniversary of Pierre Larousse and to celebrate other intellectuals who, like Samuel Johnson, Noah Webster, the Brothers Grimm, Niccolò Tommaseo, or Émile Littré, combined lexicography, philology, editing, publishing, writing poetry, essays or novels, and literary criticism in their prolific careers, we invite interested scholars to submit papers that explore the intersections of these fields of knowledge and labour.
Papers on the following topics are particularly welcome:
The abstracts, to be submitted by 1 September 2016, should be about 300 words in length (excluding references).
DEADLINE EXTENDED TO 30 SEPTEMBER 2016
Notification of acceptance will be issued by 31 October 2016.
Abstracts should be submitted through the EasyAbs page. The submission is open:
