Abstract

The collection of essays in this book developed from the conference ‘Languages and the First World War’, held at the University of Antwerp and the British Library in June 2014. The conference offered the opportunity to bring together several aspects of language: language collecting, change within languages, influences between languages, interpretation, status difference between languages, dialects and argots, and the postwar linguistic interpretation of the experience of the war.
