The Department of English Philology I (English Language and Linguistics) of the Complutense University of Madrid, and the research project EUROEVIDMOD (FFI2011-23181), are pleased to announce the International Conference on Evidentiality and Modality in European Languages 2014 (EMEL'14), which will take place at the Facultad de Filología, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 6-8 October 2014. 

EMEL'14 invites you to submit abstracts for general session or poster papers on evidentiality and modality in European languages. The conference also welcomes proposals for workshop sessions. The conference aims to cover a broad range of research concerned with the domains of evidentiality and modality, with special interest in empirical work and crosslinguistic studies. Some proposed research areas include:

- Epistemicity: relation between evidentiality and epistemic modality
- Cross-linguistic and typological studies on evidentiality
- Evidential lexical units and constructions and their relation to evidential grammatical markers
- Types of evidentiality: Direct vs. Indirect
- Reported speech and reportative evidentiality
- Epistemic stance and inter/subjectivity in discourse
- Interactional approaches to evidentiality and/or epistemic modality
- Corpus-based studies on evidentiality and/or epistemic modality

An anonymous copy of your abstract (max. 500 words, excl. references), in Word or PDF format, should be submitted via email to: emel14 at ucm.es. Please include your name, affiliation and contact details in the text of the email message.

A selection of papers based on contributions presented in this conference will be published in a special issue of an international journal and/or a prestigious academic publisher.
