The Faculty of Linguistics, Philology and Phonetics at the University of Oxford, in association with Wolfson College, will hold a conference entitled “Armenian through the Ages: Linguistic and Philological Perspectives” at Wolfson College, Oxford, on 22–23 January 2021.

We invite submissions of abstracts for 20-minute oral presentations (+ 10 minutes of questions) on any topic of research concerning Armenian language, linguistics, or philology from all time periods, regions, and language varieties. Submissions from Early Career Researchers (late-stage doctoral students and post-docs) are particularly encouraged. Abstracts may be written and talks presented in either English or French.

We endeavour to publish the proceedings of this conference in a peer-reviewed volume or special issue of a journal, for instance in the Series Armenian Texts and Studies, published by Brill and edited by Theo Maarten van Lint and Valentina Calzolari.
