<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US">‘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
<i>Nederlands tussen Duits en Engels</i> ('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

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US">Invited Speaker: Johan Van der Auwera, in collaboration with Daniël Van Olmen: “</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">On West Germanic moods and
modalities”</span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US">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.
