Meeting Description:

Andalusian Spanish, a variety of the Spanish spoken in southern Spain, has
become the subject of many scholarly articles in recent years. Arguably, it
could be stated that within the continuum of subvarieties of Iberian Spanish,
the linguistic features of Andalusian Spanish have received the most attention
in past literature (Mondéjar 2006). Despite the quantity and quality of the
current body of publications, this research has not fully incorporated the
methodological practices of recent innovative linguistic research (e.g.,
statistical, methodological). Additionally, substantial gaps of knowledge on
Andalusian Spanish remain in the areas of sound change, the
perception-production relationship, morpho-syntax, the influence of social
factors, urban vs. rural varieties, language policy, and linguistic-discursive
place-making.

Call for Papers:

Investigando las hablas andaluzas: New Approaches to Andalusian Spanish is an
international conference that will take place from May 24 to 25, 2018 at the
Institute of Romance Studies in the University of Innsbruck (Austria). We aim
to bring together research that unifies the applications of new methodologies
and new forms of research inquiry, as they apply to Andalusian Spanish. Lola
Pons (University of Seville, Spain) is the invited Key Note Speaker. We
welcome submissions from various linguistic perspectives, including (but not
limited to): socio-phonic, morpho-syntactic, sociolinguistic, pragmatic, and
linguistic-discursive. Submissions may employ a synchronic or diachronic
perspective.

We invite submissions for oral presentation (20 minutes + 10 minutes of
discussion) or for poster presentation. We invite abstracts of up to 500 words
(excluding title and references). A second page may be included for graphs,
figures, and references. Authors may submit up to two abstracts, one
individual and one joint. Abstracts will be subjected to double-blind peer
review; author names should not appear anywhere on abstracts. Abstracts should
be submitted in the language of their presentation (Spanish, English, or
German). Abstract submission opens August 14, 2017. All submissions must be
received by 11:59pm (GMT) on November 30, 2017, at the following email
address: andaluz2018 at uibk.ac.at
