The Henry Sweet Society for the History of Linguistic Ideas was founded in February 1984. Its aims are to promote and encourage the study of the history of all branches of linguistic thought, theoretical and applied, and including non-European traditions. Its fields of interest include the history both of the major subject areas of linguistics and also of more specialised topics, such as writing systems, literacy, rhetoric, and the application of linguistic ideas within professional and technical fields. For further information on the society, please see our website. Society membership and journal subscription are now managed by Taylor & Francis. Annual membership includes a print + online package (3 issues of Language & History) for £42 (student rate: £16.50). Alternatively, you can opt out of paper copies with an online- only subscription for £39 (student rate: £12).
