Call for Papers
SYMPOSIUM ON SECOND LANGUAGE WRITING
Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana, USA
September 15-16, 2000
We are pleased to announce that the second Symposium on Second
Language Writing will be held at Purdue University, West Lafayette,
Indiana, USA. We invite proposals for papers (20 minutes) and poster
sessions. Proposals must be received by December 1, 1999.
Any topic related to second language writing is welcome. We especially
encourage proposals that focus on second or foreign languages other
than English, English as a foreign language, and instructional
contexts other than higher education. We also encourage proposals from
nonnative speakers of English.

LAST CALL FOR PAPERS
Conceptualization and grammaticalization
in language production
Workshop as part of the Annual Conference
of the German Society for Linguistics (DGfS)
University of Marburg
March 1-3, 2000
In the last few years, interest in questions of language production
has greatly increased.
One of the central issues dealt with in this area is the question
of how language-specific structures determine the ways in which
situations are verbalized.
Contrary to former conceptions (cf. e.g. Levelt 1989 or Bierwisch &
Schreuder 1992) recent findings suggest that there are important
interdependencies between properties of language-specific structure
and processes of conceptualization: studies contrasting different
languages have shown that speakers of different mother tongues
systematically verbalize different aspects of the same situation (cf.,
e.g., Carroll 1997). This has partly been attributed to the fact that
different concepts are grammaticalized to different degrees in
different languages.
Cognitive approaches to typological research concerned with the
grammaticalization and/or lexicalization of various conceptual
areas have recently focussed (among other things) on the universal aspects
of the processes of grammaticalization. These approaches have almost always
been concerned with the comparison of grammatical systems. However,
very little is known about how structural differences of typologically
diverging languages affect conceptualization processes.
The aim of the workshop is twofold:
- It intends to focus on the interface between conceptualizer and
formulator (cf. Levelt 1989)
- It will also be concerned with the processes and principles
that are relevant in this respect.
Papers submitted may deal with one or several of the following topics
(but other topics are possible as well):
- empirical research concerning language specific
conceptualization processes
- experimental methods of and methodological problems in
investigating language specific conceptualization
processes in language production
- the interdependence between the selection of linguistic strategies
(e.g. localization strategy or features of addressee orientation)
and the degree of grammaticalization
- which impact do properties of language structure have on
processes of perspectivization
- the role of grammaticalization processes
- consequences for the modelling of language production processes
The objective of this workshop is to bring together people working
within the fields of language typology, and, e.g., logical and
cognitive semanticists and cognitive psycholinguists.
Conference languages are English and German.
Presentations will be in general 20 minutes long, plus 10 minutes for
discussion. Limited space is available for presentations of 40 minutes
plus 20 minutes for discussion.
