maryxmasFirst International Conference
Perspectives On Slavistics
September 17-19, 2004
Faculty of Arts campus
Leuven, Belgium
The goals of the conference are to encourage the study of Slavic languages and literatures and to establish connections among (young) scholars working in these areas. There will be two parallel colloquia, one focusing on literature, the other reserved for linguistics. The linguistics colloquium will have the honour to host the 2004 Slavic Cognitive Linguistics Conference (SCLA). This way we can bring together cognitive linguists and linguists working in other frameworks, and offer a forum for collaboration and discussion on current developments in Slavic Linguistics. A selection of the papers from both the linguistics and literatures conferences will be published as special volumes of the Belgian journal for Slavicists Slavica Gandensia. Confirmed keynote speakers include Tore Nesset from Tromso University in Norway, Elzbieta Tabakowska and Aleksander Fiut from the Jagiellonian University in Krakyw, Laura Janda from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Elwira Grossman from the University of Glasgow. David Danaher from the University of Wisconsin-Madison has been asked to provide a lecture that links the linguistics and the literature sections.
Submissions from any (young) scholar working on Slavic languages or literatures are welcomed, including those in Slavic departments, as well as in specialized linguistics or literature departments. Papers and posters will be considered on topics relating to the diachronic or synchronic study of Slavic languages and literatures from any theoretical perspective. Each paper will be allowed thirty minutes (including 10 minutes for discussion). The deadline for submissions is March 15, 2004. All submissions should follow the abstract specifications (see below).
Presentations and posters should be in English in order to open the conference up to researchers working on non-Slavic languages and literatures. We strongly encourage the use of modern presentation software, e.g. Powerpoint. The goal of this is to enhance the effectiveness of the presentation and to facilitate discussion afterwards. Laptops and beamers will be provided.
The participation fee will be 50 euros (25 for graduate students and passive participants), to be paid in advance. Detailed information on payment options & deadlines and hotel accommodation will be provided by April 2004 . The participation fee covers the abstract booklet, other conference materials, refreshments and snacks. A limited number of participants from economically disadvantaged countries may be allowed free participation upon application. Please include a motivated application for free participation when sending in your abstract. In assigning waivers priority will be given to graduate students and non-tenured scholars.
For details or questions concerning the linguistics section, please contact Dagmar Divjak (dagmar.divjak@arts.kuleuven.ac.be). If your questions relate to the literature session, contact Kris Van Heuckelom (kris.vanheuckelom@arts.kuleuven.ac.be).
