Meeting Description:

Dear colleagues,

This 1-day workshop on Bantu and Khoisan Lab Phonology will be held during the
20th International Congress of Linguistics in Cape Town, South Africa (1
July–6 July 2018).

The aim of this workshop is to showcase current “laboratory phonology”
approaches to Bantu and Khoisan languages — the two indigenous African
language groups endemic to South Africa, the host country of ICL 20. This
workshop will celebrate the history of pioneering phonetic and phonological
studies of Southern African languages, highlighting the recent resurgence in
quantitative, instrumental, and experimental studies in phonetics and
phonology more generally.

For more information on the workshop and for abstract submission guidelines,
see http://bit.ly/icl20.

Workshop organizers:
Will Bennett (w.bennett at ru.ac.za)
Aaron Braver (aaron.braver at ttu.edu)


Call for Papers:

We seek papers that bring instrumental, quantitative, or experimental methods
to bear on data from Bantu and/or Khoisan languages. The workshop welcomes
papers that feature novel data collected in the lab or in the field, as well
as fresh analytical approaches to existing data or corpora.

Abstracts are due to ICL on 31 August 2017.

Best regards,

Will Bennett (w.bennett at ru.ac.za)
