Meeting Description:

International conference Yiddish Language Structures

The conference follows the example of the workshop Yiddish Language Structures
which was held held at the University of Regensburg in 2009. Likewise, we
intend to publish a collection of peer reviewed articles based on a selection
of conference papers. The workshop is also meant to be a forum for discussing
the new project towards a Syntax of Eastern Yiddish Dialects (SEYD) that aims
to examine the grammatical structures that can be found in the field notes of
the Language and Culture Archive of Ashkenazic Jewry.


Call for Papers:

The chair of Yiddish Culture, Language and Literature at the University of
Düsseldorf (Lea Schäfer and Marion Aptroot) invites abstracts for the
international conference Yiddish Language Structures 2 to be held June 11–13,
2019 in Düsseldorf, Germany. The main focus will be on structural aspects of
the Yiddish language system and includes both theoretical and empirical
questions. The organizers intend to bring together specialists from the fields
of Yiddish Linguistics and researchers in General Linguistics working with
Yiddish in oder to put Yiddish language structures into a broader linguistic
context.

Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

– Phonetics, phonology, lexicology, morphology, and the syntax of Yiddish
– Yiddish in (micro-)typological contexts
– Yiddish dialectology
–  Historical linguistics

Full papers Maximum length: 500 words or 1 single-spaced page. Abstracts must
be anonymous; do not put your name or other identifying information on the
abstract.
Posters Maximum length: 500 words or 1 single-spaced page. Abstracts must be
anonymous. 

Please submit your abstract via EasyChair:
