<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;font-family: Times;" lang="EN-GB">Arawakan
(or
Arawak), one of the great linguistic families in South America,
continues
to pose intriguing research questions for linguistics,
anthropology, and
related disciplines. Due to the remarkable expansion of the
family throughout
much of South America and the Caribbean, Arawakan people and
languages have
come into contact with numerous, genealogically unrelated
peoples and
languages, often forming multilingual cultural areas, some of
which can be
considered true linguistic areas. This symposium provides a
forum for dialogue
between specialists on Arawakan languages and peoples. The main
goal is to
better characterize Arawakan languages and cultures as being
made up of traits
inherited from a common ancestor on the one hand, and contact
with
non-Arawakans on the other hand. We aim at interdisciplinary
dialogue,
involving linguists, historians, anthropologists and
archeologists. We
particularly welcome (but do not restrict this call to)
proposals for papers
that contribute to a better understanding of the history of the
Arawakan
expansion. Such contributions may be based on large-scale
comparisons involving
many languages or groups, but may as well be on a local scale,
i.e. focusing on
individual languages or groups in the context of their local
contact situations
and/or close genealogical relatives, from any Arawakan language
or group.<br>
