Joseph Greenberg Award 2015 (Deadline January 15, 2015)

The Association for Linguistic Typology's Joseph Greenberg Award recognizes
and honours the best piece of typological research embodied in a doctoral
dissertation or equivalent in 2013-2014. Theses are eligible if they were
accepted by a university (i.e. passed or defended or accepted, and not just
submitted) between 1 January 2013 and 31 December 2014.

The award will consist of payment of travel, accommodation and registration
fee to attend the 11th ALT Conference, to be held in Albuquerque, August 1-3,
2015, and to present a synopsis or element of the prize-winning work as a
plenary lecture at that meeting.

The Joseph Greenberg Award was named to remember Joseph Greenberg's
(1915-2001) fundamental contributions to typology and the interest he showed
in encouraging young researchers. Between 1998 and 2006, it was known as the
''ALT Junior Award''.

To be eligible, those submitting their dissertation must be (or become)
members of the Association for Linguistic Typology (ALT). They are asked to
submit their manuscript by email in pdf format, with all non-standard fonts in
Unicode, to the chair of the jury, to arrive no later than January 15th 2015.
The address for submissions is greenbergaward2015 at gmail.com. If this proves
technically difficult, the candidate is asked to discuss the problem with the
chair. A jury, consisting of about ten ALT members, will be appointed by ALT's
president, appropriate to the work submitted.

The chair will be:
Denis Creissels
DDL - ISH
14 avenue Berthelot
69363 LYON cedex O7
