Meeting Description:

The SOAS Department of Linguistics is organising a one-day workshop on
Empirical and Theoretical Approaches to Intonation in Endangered and Lesser
Studied Languages, to be held online on 16th December 2021, as part of the
pre-conference session of the 6th Conference on Language Documentation and
Linguistic Theory (LDLT6).


Call for Papers:

We invite contributions that use empirical data from minoritised, endangered,
and lesser studied languages in order to explore theoretical aspects of
intonation, including, but not limited to:

intonational phonology;
linguistic and ‘paralinguistic’ approaches to intonation;
phonetic vs phonological approaches to intonation;
laboratory phonology, the phonetics-phonology interface and intonation
studies;
transcription systems for intonation;
interrelations and interactions between intonation and other prosodic
structures;
interrelations and interactions between prosodic structures, syntactic and
morphosyntactic structures;
intonation and information structure.

MA students, PhD candidates and postdoctoral researchers are particularly
encouraged to submit contributions.

Invited speaker
TBC

Presentations will be 20 minutes followed by 10 minutes of discussion. Each
individual may present up to one single-authored paper and one joint paper
throughout the whole conference (main session and workshops). The deadline for
submission is at midnight (GMT) on Sunday 26th September 2021. 

The text of the abstract should be anonymous, a minimum of 11 pt font and no
more than one page in length, including references and examples. They should
be in .pdf format and the file name should start with LDLT6, followed by an
underscore and then first authors’ surname, e.g. LDLT6_ashmore.pdf. If you
have a common surname, please include initials, e.g. LDLT6_jjones.pdf. 

Abstracts should be submitted using the LDLT6 Easychair site.  Please specify
if you would like your abstract to be considered for the main conference or
one of the workshops.

Notifications of acceptance will be sent in early November, when we will ask
presenters to return to us either a pre-recorded version of their
contribution, which we will play at the established time, or the slides with
no voice-over if they prefer to talk live. In either case, the discussion will
take place live, via the designated online platform.

Interaction
All formal interaction (presentations, questions and comments, round tables
etc.) will be online (platform TBC). Joint viewing facilities will be
available at SOAS, University of London, only for the main conference. A small
reception followed by dinner will be organized on the last day of the
conference for those participants who are based or staying locally, provided
that the social distancing rules are relaxed enough by then.

Proceedings
Selected papers from the main conference and workshops will be published in a
special edition of the peer-reviewed journal Language Documentation and
Description.

Further information and registration details
Further information and registration details may be found at the conference
webpage.

All inquiries should be directed to ldlt6 at soas.ac.uk
