Meeting Description:

Formal Diachronic Semantics (FoDS) is a venue dedicated to work in semantic
change carried out within the paradigm of formal semantics/pragmatics. The 5th
FoDS will be hosted by the Linguistics Department at the Hebrew University of
Jerusalem, on March 24-26 2020.

This year, FoDS will be part of a larger 3-day event entitled ''Language
Change: Theoretical and Empirical Perspectives'' taking place in March 24-26,
2020, which will also include the closing conference of Prof. Edit Doron's ERC
project ''The Emergence of Modern Hebrew'' and an interface session between
this and FoDS, entitled: ''Explorations in Contemporary Historical
Linguistics'', whose goal is to trace the state of historical linguistics in
the 21st century more generally.

Invited Speakers:

Ashwini Deo, OSU
Regine Eckardt, Universität Konstanz  
Remus Gergel, Universität des Saarlandes
Alexandra Simonenko, Ghent University

Local Organizational Committee: Elitzur Bar-Asher Siegal, Nora Boneh, Eitan
Grossman, Aynat Rubinstein


Call for Papers:

We invite abstract submissions for oral (20-minute talks plus 10 minutes for
discussion) as well as poster presentations that address semantic change on
the basis of formal theories of meaning, including case studies, studies of
trends as well as general formal theories of meaning change and corpus based
research. We also welcome research at the interfaces with pragmatics, syntax
and other areas, as long as it makes a contribution to the area of formal
diachronic semantics. We also welcome papers that address methodological
questions in the field.

Abstracts must be anonymous, in PDF format, 2 pages (A4 or letter), in a font
size no less than 12pt, and with margins of 1 inch/2.5 cm. Please submit
abstracts via Easychair no later than January 17, 2020.
