Association for
Linguistic Typology proposes to make a Junior Award for the best piece
of
typological research embodied in a doctoral dissertation or equivalent
submitted between 1 January 2001 and 31 December 2004. The award will
consist
of payment of travel, per diem expenses and registration fee to attend
ALT VI,
to be held in Padang, West Sumatra, Indonesia from Thursday July 21 to
Monday
July 25, 2005, and to present a synopsis or element of the
prize-winning work
as a plenary lecture at that meeting. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Courier New";">Those
wishing to be
considered for this award are asked to submit FIVE copies of their
dissertation
to the Chair of the Jury, to arrive no later than February 1 2005. Work
submitted will not be returned. Applicants who encounter financial
difficulties
in preparing and mailing five copies of their thesis, etc., may contact
the
President of ALT for a subvention. If their application is approved,
they will
be asked to mail one copy of their thesis, etc., and ALT will cover the
costs
of preparing the other copies.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

decide not

work is
entered in the present competition.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
