Abstract

Teaching the history of linguistics often involves talking about a large number of people – linguists and scholars in related fields – who are only hazily recognized by students, and often the teacher is no better off. A set of graphical networks can help enormously in the task of orienting oneself and keeping track of who is exactly who.

Note: A video of the session in which this was presented and the associated slide deck are available in the foreword to this issue.
