CALL FOR PAPERS
6th International Columbia School Conference
on the Interaction between
Linguistic Form, Meaning, and Human Behavior
October 9-11, 1999
Rutgers University
New Brunswick, New Jersey
Invited speakers:
Ronald Langacker, University of California, La Jolla
Melissa Bowerman, Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics
Wallis Reid, Rutgers University
Papers invited on any aspect of linguistic analysis in which the
postulation of meaningful signals plays a central role in
explaining the distribution of linguistic forms.
The Columbia School is a group of linguists developing the
theoretical framework established by the late William Diver. In this
framework language is seen as a symbolic tool whose structure is
shaped both by its communicative function and by the
characteristics of its human users. Grammatical analyses seek to
explain the distribution of linguistic forms as an interaction
between meaningful signals and pragmatic and functional factors
such as inference, ease of processing, iconicity, and the like.
Phonological analyses seek to explain the syntagmatic and
paradigmatic distributions of phonological units within signals,
also drawing on both communicative function and human
physiological and psychological characteristics.
Please submit:
3 copies of a one-page anonymous abstract (optional second
page for references and/or examples), to the address below.
a 3x5 index card with the following information:
title of paper
author's name and affiliation
address, phone number, and e-mail address for
notification
E-mail abstracts should include the above information, which
will be deleted before the abstracts are reviewed.

SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS
THE ESSLLI'99 STUDENT SESSION
August 9-20, 1999, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Deadline : March 15th, 1999
http://www-ensais.u-strasbg.fr/LIIA/todirascu/esslli-fr.html
We are pleased to announce the Student Session of the 11th European
Summer School in Logic, Language and Information (ESSLLI'99) organized
by the University of Utrecht under the auspices of the European
Association for Logic, Language and Information (FOLLI) and located at
the University of Utrecht in August 1999. We will welcome submission
of papers for presentation at the ESSLLI'99 Student Session and
appearance in the proceedings.
==============================================================================
PURPOSE:
This is going to be the fourth ESSLLI Student Session and it will
provide, like the other editions, an opportunity for ESSLLI
participants who are students to present their own WORK IN PROGRESS
and get feedback from their colleagues and fellow-students. It is
desired that papers presenting creative and innovative ideas will be
submitted. The ESSLLI'99 Student Session encourages submissions from
students at any level, from undergraduates - before completion of the
Master Thesis as well as postgraduates - before completion of the PhD
degree. We will not accept papers co-authored by non-students. As in
the previous editions, the ESSLLI'99 Student Session will consist of
paper presentations. The ESSLLI'99 Student Session has its own
timeslot in the school's schedule: 60 minutes every day for two weeks,
provided that a sufficient number of good quality papers is
accepted. Each presentation will last 30 minutes (including 10 minutes
of discussion).
=============================================================================
REQUIREMENTS:
The Student Session papers should describe original, unpublished work,
completed or in progress that demonstrates insight, creativity, and
promise. No previously published papers should be submitted. Papers
will cover topics within the six ESSLLI subject areas (Logic,
Linguistics, Computation, Logic&Linguistics, Logic&Computation,
Linguistics&Computation). The accepted papers will be published in
the ESSLLI'99 Student Session proceedings, which will be made
available during ESSLLI'99, together with the readers of the courses.
==============================================================================
FORMAT OF SUBMISSION:
Student authors should submit an anonymous extended abstract headed by
the paper title, not to exceed 5 pages of length exclusive of
references and a separate identification page (see below). Note that
the length of the full papers will not be allowed to exceed 10 pages.
Since reviewing will be blind, the body of the abstract should omit
author names and addresses. Furthermore, self-references that reveal
the author's identity (e.g., " We previously showed (Smith,
1991)... ") should be avoided. It is possible to use instead
references like " Smith (1991) previously showed...".
To identify each paper, a separate identification page should be
supplied containing the paper's title, the name(s) of the author(s),
the author(s)s'affiliation and complete address(s) a short (5 lines)
summary and a specification of the subject area to which the paper
belongs. The subject areas considered are: Logic, Linguistics,
Computation, Logic&Linguistics, Logic&Computation, and Linguistics &
Computation.
=============================================================================
MEDIA OF SUBMISSION AND FORMATTING REQUIREMENTS:
The student authors should submit their papers electronically to:
amalia at liia.u-strasbg.fr
amalia at thor.infoiasi.ro
For any submission a plain ASCII text version of the identification page
should be sent separately by email, using the following format:
