Meeting Description:

The MIT Linguistics Department is hosting a Conference on Metrical Structure: Text-setting and Stress for September 20-21, 2013. The conference marks a number of new developments in these fields as well as a number of 90th anniversaries: among them, the publication of Roman Jakobson’s O češkom stixe (1923), the first typological study of meter and stress, hailed as the beginning of Prague School phonology; Eduard Hermann’s Silbenbildung im Griechischen und in den andern indogermanischen Sprachen (1923), the first typological study of syllable weight as applied to quantitative meter; and other 1923 events of significance for the theory of metrical structure. The abbreviated name of the conference is M at 90.

MeganCrowhurst, Matt Gordon, William Idsardi, Junko Ito, Mark Liberman

Accepted poster presenters will be notified by May 20, 2013. The address to which abstracts should be sent is stressmeter at mit.edu.
