You've come to the homepage of Joseph Salmons. I have a BA in Philosophy (UNC-Charlotte, 1978) and a PhD in Germanic Linguistics (University of Texas, 1984). I research and teach about sounds and language change, drawing data particularly from historical and contemporary Germanic languages.

Beyond that, I have the privilege of serving as Executive Editor of Diachronica: International journal for historical linguistics and Director of the Center for the Study of Upper Midwestern Cultures. With Patrick Honeybone I'm editing the Handbook of Historical Phonology for Oxford University Press, and with Rob Howell and Paul Roberge, I am writing the two-volume Cambridge History of the Germanic Languages. more . . .
