topics: language change and online discourse, language change in
progress, language change and literary texts, new directions with
electronic text databases. Papers may be on any aspect of language
change at any linguistic level (phonological, morphological,
syntactic, pragmatic, semantic, stylistic) in any modern language in
any period. Papers on such topics as attitudes towards change,
pedagogical approaches to language change, and theories of change are
also welcome. Papers must take no more than 20 minutes to present, in
order to leave ample time for discussion of all papers in each
session. All persons presenting papers at the MLA convention must be
current members of the MLA. Please send abstracts of no more than 300
