align="left"><b><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Verdana">The
island of Java</span></b><span
style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Verdana"> is home to several
major
languages. Javanese—spoken mainly in Central and East Java— is
the world’s 10th
or 11th largest language in number of native speakers. It has
one of the oldest
and fullest recorded histories of any Austronesian language. It
also has been
of considerable interest to scholars because of the system of
speech levels or
speech styles found in a number of varieties of Javanese.
Sundanese—spoken in
West Java— has over 27 million speakers, and Madurese—spoken on
the neighboring
island of Madura and throughout parts of East Java—has over 13
million
speakers. Varieties of both of these languages have speech level
systems and
such systems can also be found in the geographically,
historically, and
linguistically related languages on the neighboring islands of
Bali and Lombok.
Each of these languages displays a range of dialects, isolects,
continua, and
contact varieties and yet they have received relatively little
attention from
linguists. With this symposium, we offer an opportunity for
scholars working on
any aspect of Javanese, Sundanese, Madurese, Balinese and Sasak
to come
together and share their findings. We aim to encourage and
promote continued
research on these important and unique languages. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph"
align="left"><b><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Verdana">Abstracts</span></b><span
style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Verdana"> are invited for
papers to be
presented on any linguistic topics dealing with the languages of
Java and its
environs—Javanese, Sundanese, Madurese, Balinese, and Sasak.
Papers on other
languages will be judged according to their relevance to the
symposium topic.
Papers are welcome from any subfield of linguistics and using
any approach or
theoretical background. Studies of non-standard(ized) versions,
dialects, and
isolects, including contact varieties, are particularly welcome.
All papers are
to be presented in English. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
