Meeting Description: 

El 'Coloquio Antonio de los Reyes;  (V Coloquio sobre Lenguas Otomangues y sus Vecinas) se celebrará en el nuevo Centro Académico y Cultural San Pablo, ubicado en el exconvento de Santo Domingo de Soriano, en la ciudad de Oaxaca (México) del 20 al 22 de abril de 2012. El propósito del coloquio es reunir a especialistas de las lenguas otomangues y las lenguas de sus vecinos para compartir los resultados de sus estudios. El coloquio combina conferencias académicas con exposiciones, presentaciones y actividades culturales.

Como es costumbre del evento, cada Coloquio conmemora a un destacado estudioso de estas lenguas; para 2012 se dedica el evento a la memoria del fray Antonio de los Reyes (fallecido en 1603), autor de la primera gramática de la lengua mixteca (1593), la cual es a su vez uno de los primeros estudios de la variación lingüística de una lengua indígena americana.

Es el quinto coloquio sobre las lenguas otomangues y sus vecinas. La primera fue la Conference on Otomanguean and Oaxacan Languages (COOL) celebrado en la Universidad de California, Berkeley en marzo de 2004. Posteriormente la sede de los coloquios se cambió a la ciudad de Oaxaca donde se ha celebrado el Coloquio Francisco Belmar en abril de 2006, el Coloquio María Teresa Fernández de Miranda en abril de 2008 y el Coloquio Thomas Smith-Stark en abril de 2010.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These

return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site,
or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a
simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to
LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
