Forum for Germanic Language Studies (FGLS)

"The Forum for Germanic Language Studies (FGLS) is an informal grouping for anyone interested in Germanic languages, and is mainly based in the UK and Ireland. The inaugural meeting was held in Manchester in 1994, under the name of the Forum for German Language Studies. At the 1996 meeting in York the name was changed to reflect the interest in languages other than German. The purpose of FGLS is to promote research and teaching in the Germanic languages. To this end we organise regular conferences and run a mailing list."
