Meeting Description:

The Purdue Linguistics Association, The School of Languages and Cultures, and
the Second Language Studies Program at Purdue University are happy to announce
the Second Purdue Languages and Cultures Conference. The aim of the conference
is to create an environment that supports collaborative and interdisciplinary
research projects related to the fields of study in language and language use.
In an academic climate that is placing increasing demands for the
justification of research in the social sciences and humanities, it has become
important for research in the fields of linguistics and literature to
demonstrate their value across disciplines. Recognizing this situation, this
conference looks for presentations of original research in the theme
of Translational Ideas - Bridging Gaps Between Research and Society.


Call for Papers:

We invite submissions of original research papers from all areas of
linguistics, literature and cultural studies to be presented in either
20-minute talks, or a poster presentation. Topics of interest include but are
not limited to: 

- Language Acquisition
- Literature Studies
- Syntax/Semantics
- Comparative Literature
- Phonetics/Phonology
- Film Studies
- Pragmatics
- Cultural Studies
- Language Variation and Change
- Cognitive Linguistics and Literature
- Discourse Analysis
- Second Language Studies
- Applied Linguistics
- Sociolinguistics
- Corpus Linguistics

Abstracts are due by Friday, December 2, 2016 and must adhere to the following
submission guidelines:
 
- Abstracts should be submitted through the easyabs website
http://linguistlist.org/easyabs/PLCC2017  in PDF format and must not contain
any information identifying the author(s) including university affiliation and
program of study.
- All abstracts must be submitted in English. The presentation may be
presented in a language other than English; however, permission to do so is at
discretion of the conference committee. 
- Abstracts must be no more than 1 page in length (approximately 500 words,
single spaced) with an extra page allowed for references, examples, tables and
figures. 
- The title of the PDF document must state whether the presenter would like to
be included in either the Applied Linguistics, Theoretical Linguistics or
Literature/Cultural Studies parallel session in addition to the title of the
paper. Thus the title should be, for example: Applied Linguistics: The
acquisition of case marking among child learners of Basque. 
- Authors may submit more than one abstract, either joint or individual
