PiHPh welcomes submissions from all areas of historical phonology, and actively seeks to bring together work from distinct linguistic subfields which may not normally communicate with one another. The definition of 'historical phonology' that PiHPh adopts is set out in the Preface to PiHPh, which was published in the first issue. This definition is broad, taking in all areas of linguistics which link the study of sound systems to the past in any way. It is concerned both with how and why the phonology of languages changes in diachrony, and with the reconstruction of past synchronic phonological states. It is also concerned with the patterns of contemporary variation in phonology, in order to understand how change is implemented. Historical phonology is thus an inherently inter(sub)disciplinary enterprise — no one approach can hope to understand it fully. We need to combine insights from theoretical phonology, phonetics, sociolinguistics, dialectology, philology, language acquisition, and, no doubt, other areas. We need to interact with the traditions of scholarship that have grown up around individual languages and language families, and with disciplines like history, sociology and palaeography. The kinds of questions that PiHPh wants to ask therefore include at least the following: Which changes are possible in phonology? What is the precise patterning of particular changes in the history of specific languages? How do changes arise and spread through communities? Are there characteristics that phonological changes (or particular types of changes) always show? What counts as evidence for change, or for the reconstruction of previous stages of languages’ phonologies? What kinds of factors can motivate or constrain change? Are there factors which lead to stability in language, and militate against change? To what extent is phonological change independent of changes that occur at other levels of the grammar, such as morphology, syntax or semantics? What is the relationship between the study of completed phonological changes and of variation and change in progress? What is the relationship between phonological change and (first and second) language acquisition? What types of units and domains, at both segmental and prosodic levels, do we need in order to capture phonological change? How can the results of historical phonology inform phonological theorising? How does phonologisation proceed — how do non-phonological pressures come to be reflected in phonology?
