Meeting Description:

The research team SeSyLiA (Semantics and Syntax - Language in Action; PRISMES EA 4398), in conjunction with the ED 514, is pleased to host the 7th edition of SNUGLS in Paris on Friday 13 May 2016. The goal of the conference is to bring together junior researchers and give them an opportunity to practise their presentation skills in English and discuss their work with specialists in their field.

This year, we are delighted to welcome Émilie L’Hôte, Associate Professor in English linguistics at Paris Diderot University – Paris 7 as our keynote speaker.

Institut du Monde Anglophone – Paris 3
5, rue de l’École de médecine
75006 Paris

Call for Papers: 

Graduate students (i.e. second-year Master’s and PhD students) as well as first-year post-docs are encouraged to apply. The conference language is English and each presentation will be allotted a 20-minute slot followed by 10 minutes for discussion.

Topics relevant to the conference encompass all fields of linguistics focusing on the English language, including, but not restricted to, first and second language acquisition, language teaching and learning, sociolinguistics, pragmatics, discourse analysis, conversation analysis, corpus linguistics, lexicology and lexicography, translation and interpretation, and phonetics.

Different perspectives can be adopted (methods of data collection, multimodality, etc.). Contributions exploring the questions of ‘affect’, ‘stance’ and ‘intersubjectivity’ or any other related subjects (dialogicity, expression of emotions, modality, etc.) will be greatly appreciated.

In order to make scientific comments and help participants become more efficient communicators, two discussion sessions will be organised during the day to provide friendly feedback.

One copy should be made ready for anonymous refereeing while the other should include the name(s), institutional affiliation(s) and contact information of the author(s).

The abstracts will be reviewed and selected by a scientific committee composed of academic researchers, including members of the SeSyLiA team. 

Deadline for abstract submission: 
Friday 4 March 2016
