Meeting Description:

The Department of Languages, Literatures and Linguistics at York University
will host the 48th Linguistic Symposium on Romance Languages (LSRL 48) from
April 25-28, 2018. 

The theme of the conference is Points of Convergence in Romance Linguistics,
which aims to capture the fact that all the major areas of linguistics (e.g.
morphology, syntax, semantics, phonology, sociolinguistics, first and second
language acquisition) will be represented through research on different
Romance languages.

In addition to the main session, consisting of oral presentations and two
poster sessions, LSRL 48 will feature a special workshop on Romance Diachrony
at the Interfaces, which focuses on generative syntactic interfaces with
morphology, semantics, and pragmatics in Romance historical linguistics.
