2nd Meeting of the Holland-York Symposium on the History of
English Syntax
ULCL, University of Leiden, 12 and 13 April 2003 (Saturday and
Sunday)
At the successful and enjoyable first meeting of this Symposium
in York, UK, in April 2002, it was decided that a second
instalment should be held in 2003, in Leiden. The aim of the
Symposium is to give researchers the opportunity to present and
listen to work-in-progress in the field of English historical
syntax, with a focus on approaches that investigate the relation
between quantitative findings and structural factors. Both areas
separately have seen a fair amount of work over the last two
decades and the relations between them are also now being explored
at increasing levels of depth and precision. The Symposium has
grown out of existing contacts between the research communities in
York and Holland, who have a shared interest in these approaches
to syntactic change in the history of English.
