Second Call for Papers and Workshops

Phonetics and Phonology in Europe

2019 Mon 17-Tue 18-Wed 19 June 2019 (Lecce)

Conference web site: pape2019.unisalento.it

The Phonetics and Phonology in Europe (PaPE) conference series, originally established in the Iberian Peninsula (as PaPI, Phonetics and Phonology in Iberia), brings together researchers interested in all areas of phonetics and phonology, with a specific emphasis on the perspectives and methodologies adopted in Laboratory Phonology.
As in the previous editions, PaPE 2019 is intended to be an interdisciplinary forum for research on the sound properties of language approached from multiple perspectives, with the general aim to promote discussion on the relation between phonetics and phonology, as well as the cross-fertilization of phonetics and phonology with other fields, such as psycholinguistics, computational linguistics, neurosciences and speech technology.
In this vein, PaPE 2019 continues the tradition of the series in welcoming submissions on any aspect of phonetics and phonology especially from an interdisciplinary perspective. This year we particularly encourage papers dealing with all dimensions of language variation. Contributions are therefore welcome on language variation in all possible domains, such as, for example, sociophonetics, language learning and development, speech pathology, speech accommodation and multimodal communication.

Call for Papers

LAST CALL FOR PAPERS

The 12th International Symposium on Bilingualism (ISB12) will take place at the University of Alberta, Canada, 23-28 June, 2019.

The conference theme is “Bilingualism and The Next Generation,” which highlights the importance of the next generation in language maintenance and survival on the one hand, and the importance of the next generation of scholars in moving the field forward on the other. Papers that fit within that theme in some way are particularly eagerly solicited. However, ISB12 invites papers in all areas of research in bilingualism and multilingualism (whether linked to the conference theme or not), including but not limited to: linguistics, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, applied linguistics, neuropsychology, first and second and third language acquisition, clinical linguistics, language and education, and multilingual societies.

Keynote speakers include:

• Richard Clément
• Erika Hoff
• Marco Jacquemet
• Enric Llurda
• Roy Lyster
• Virginia Yip
• Virginia Zavala

Invited theme sessions include:

• Bilingualism in the context of World Englishes (organizer: Suzanne Hilgendorf)
• First language learning and the brain (organizer: Thierry Nazzi)
• Heritage language learning in children (organizer: Silvina Montrul)
• Advances in Immersion Teacher Education Research (organizer: Diane J. Tedick)
• Indigenous language revitalization (organizer: Jorge Lemus)
• Language and thought (organizer: Bene Benedetti)
• Language disorders in bilingual children (organizer: Sharon Armon-Lotem)

There will also be a Journée CSJ at the Campus Saint-Jean, the French-language campus of the University of Alberta, featuring an invited theme sessions on French immersion (organizer: Laurent Cammarata).

PROPOSALS

Abstracts are solicited for three categories of proposals: individual papers, posters, and theme sessions.

Individual papers: Papers are formal presentations on original research or original pedagogy-focused topics by one or more authors, lasting a total of eighteen minutes with five additional minutes for discussion. Abstracts should be a maximum of 300 words in length.

Posters: Poster sessions are for displaying original research or pedagogy that offers the opportunity for individualized, informal discussion with others in the field. Posters are especially effective for presenting work-in-progress, fieldwork, and results of empirical research for which data can be presented visually. Posters will be available throughout an entire day of the conference with presenters in attendance for a 90-minute poster session. Abstracts should be a maximum of 300 words in length.

Theme sessions: Theme sessions allow for extended, interactive discussion on a specific topic, focusing on a cluster of independent papers. Each submission should include either three presentations and a discussant or four presentations, for a total of four “slots”. Submissions must include an abstract for the panel (of a maximum of 500 words in length), as well as for each of the constituent papers (of a maximum of 300 words in length).

Abstracts may be submitted in either English or French, and presentations may also be given in either language. Apart from this, the main working language of ISB12 will be English (we plan to offer interpretation to and from American Sign Language, if requested).

The deadline for the submission of abstracts will be 15 October, 2018 at 23:59 North American Mountain time. Notification of acceptance can be expected by 15 January, 2019.
