51th International Conference on Medieval Studies

This was just posted on Facebook:

"ICMS 2016 (Kalamazoo) CFP:

In a Word, Philology: Etymology, Lexicography, Semantics, and More in Germanic

I am happy to invite abstract submissions for the 7th annual session of this name on any philological or linguistic topic within any of the the Germanic languages, or comparatively between Germanic or Germanic and other language families. Preference is given to a) comparative topics, b) lesser-represented languages (for example Gothic, Runic, or Old Frisian), and c) papers that address methodological concerns, but any and all abstracts that fit the general criteria are welcome. Please send proposals or abstracts of 200 words maximum to Adam Oberlin (oberl024@umn.edu) by 15. September, 2015."
