As The Department of Linguistics at the Hebrew University of
Jerusalem specializes both in theoretical and descriptive
linguistics, this conference aims to bring the two disciplines
together, by encouraging graduate students from all over the world
to participate at IGDAL. Graduate students not having defended a
Ph.D. in Linguistics by October 2011 are invited to submit abstracts
in various subfields of theoretical and descriptive Linguistics,
Functional as well as Formal approaches to Linguistics, including
frameworks such as P&P, MP, DM, LFG, HPSG, RRG, Prague School,
Typological, Descriptive and Historical Linguistics,
Psycholinguistics, Neurolinguistics, etc. Topics may include Text
Linguistics, Narrative Analysis, Syntax, Semantics, Morphology,
Phonology, Pragmatics, Lexical Semantics and the various interfaces
between them. <br>
<br>
Papers are allotted 20 minutes for presentation plus 10 minutes for
questions and discussion. Contributions can focus on results from
completed as well as ongoing research, with an emphasis on novel
approaches, methods, ideas, and perspectives. Presentations should
describe original, unpublished work. <br>
<br>
Abstracts' length should be between 1.5-2 pages, including data,
discussion, references, examples and diagrams. The theoretical
framework of the research should be explicitly stated in the
abstract. Abstracts should be typed in at least 11-point font, with
1 inch margins (A4 or letter-size) in PDF format. Abstracts must be
anonymous and submissions are limited to 1 individual and 1 joint
abstract per author. All abstracts will be anonymously reviewed by
the conference's academic committee; papers will appear in the
proceedings of IGDAL, which will be published online. <br>
<br>
