PREMIER APPEL A COMMUNICATION
FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS
Colloque International de l'AAI
International AAI Workshop

"Interfaces prosodiques"
"Prosodic Interfaces"

NANTES (France)
27-28-29 Mars / March 2003

o Presentation / Presentation

Comme les annees precedentes, l'equipe AAI de l'Universite de Nantes
organise un colloque international. Vous avez ete nombreux a
participer a ces manifestations, et nous esperons que vous serez tout
aussi nombreux a nous rendre visite en mars 2003.

Nous vous proposons cette annee de nous interesser au champ de la
prosodie, qui a acquis un caractere central et incontournable dans
nombre de domaines. C'est le sens du terme "interfaces", qui voudrait
insister sur l'articulation entre la prosodie et d'autres terrains de
recherche.  Comment se relient par exemple la prosodie et la syntaxe,
la pragmatique, la gestualite? Quelles grilles d'analyses, phonetiques
ou phonologiques, peut-on appliquer aux phenomenes prosodiques ? Que
nous apprennent sur le langage la pathologie et l'acquisition de la
prosodie ? Quelle est l'amplitude de la variation prosodique entre les
langues du monde, ou a l'interieur de ces langues, et peut-on faire
une typologie de la prosodie ?  Que nous apprennent du role de la
prosodie le bilinguisme, ou l'apprentissage d'une langue etrangere ?

Toutes ces questions, et bien d'autres encore, seront nous l'esperons
abordees en mars 2003 a Nantes.

The AAI team of the University of Nantes is calling for papers for its
international workshop. Many of you participated in our Workshops in
1997, 1999 and 2002. We hope that you will honour us this year too.

Our proposal this year is to investigate the field of speech prosody,
which is acquiring a central dimension in many domains. This
centrality explains our choice of the term 'interfaces', which
underlines the articulation of prosody with other research areas.  How
for instance can we link prosody and syntax, pragmatics, the study of
gestures ? What kinds of analytic grids, phonetical or phonological,
can we apply to prosodic phenomena ? What can we learn from the
pathology and acquisition of prosody ? What is the amplitude of
prosodic variation between the languages of the world, or between the
dialects of a given language ? How can bilingualism and second
language acquisition help us to understand the role of prosody in
language?

All these questions, and hopefully many others, will be addressed in
March 2003 in Nantes.
