From Freek.VanDeVelde at arts.kuleuven.be Tue Jun 19 17:59:56 2012 From: Freek.VanDeVelde at arts.kuleuven.be (Freek Van de Velde) Date: Tue, 19 Jun 2012 17:59:56 +0000 Subject: Call for papers: A Germanic Sandwich 2013 Message-ID: EXTENDED DEADLINE: 15 July 2012 Call for papers for the conference 'A Germanic Sandwich 2013' Meeting Description: 'A Germanic Sandwich 2013' will be held at the University of Leuven from 11-12 January 2013, as the fourth edition of a series of conferences in which Dutch is compared with its West Germanic neighbours, English and German. The first one took place in Berlin to commemorate the 1956 appearance of the seminal publication Nederlands tussen Duits en Engels ('Dutch between German and English'), a study by the renowned Dutch linguist C.B. van Haeringen. Later editions of the conference were held at Sheffield (2008) and Oldenburg (2010). The conferences have spawned a number of special issues, either as a book volume (Hüning et al. 2006) or as special issues of journals (Vismans et al. 2010; Ruigendijk et al. in prep.). See also http://www.shef.ac.uk/dutch/pastevents#sandwich and Van der Wouden, forthc.). Invited Speaker: Johan Van der Auwera, in collaboration with Daniël Van Olmen: "On West Germanic moods and modalities" Abstracts are invited for 30 minutes talks (20+10), in which Dutch is compared to German and/or English. Other Germanic languages may of course be included as well, and application of the 'sandwich' idea to other language families (see e.g. Lamiroy & De Mulder 2011) also fall within the scope of the conference. We welcome studies with a typological and/or comparative perspective, dealing with questions about structural aspects of the languages, their history or their status. Studies from a language acquisition or psycholinguistic perspective will find their place as well. Hüning, M., A. Verhagen, U. Vogl & T. van der Wouden (eds.). 2006.
