Mongolian Language and Culture in Contact II

 

International conference

November 1-2, 2024.

 Institute of Asian Studies, Faculty of Arts, Charles University, Prague

 

Conference abstract

In the study of languages and cultures, contact has been steadily gaining recognition as one of the key forming factors. In history, nomadic societies, because of their mobility, have been constantly exposed to different influences through contact with their nomadic and sedentary neighbours, as is no less true for Mongolians in the modern globalized world.

With this in mind, we are glad to welcome contributions focusing on linguistic and cultural contacts and their impacts, both within the Mongolian society and between the Mongols and other cultures.
