Celtic and Scottish Studies Seminar Series: Joanna Kopaczyk In brief Date - 1 December 2023 Venue - Online Speaker - Professor Joanna Kopaczyk (University of Glasgow) Title - 'The Future of Scots' Email Neill Martin for joining details About the speaker Joanna Kopaczyk is a Professor of Scots and English Philology and historical linguist with a special interest in the medieval and early modern history of the Scots language. She uses corpus-driven methods to uncover textual standardisation, and is also interested in formulaicity in language, as revealed through all kinds of repetitive patterns. Some of Joanna's other interests include exploring legal texts composed in medieval Scottish burghs, historical phonology and sound changes, and the early modern period of the history of Scots. She aims to develop a systematic approach for tracing the demise of Scots under pressure from English in the official registers, and is planning to look more closely at these two standardising languages in competition.
