Description:

Applications are sought for a 3-year PhD position in linguistic description
and typology,
with a focus on complex predicates in Kru and/or Kwa languages, particularly
in Côte d'Ivoire.

This PhD position is part of the “ComPLETE” project (“Complex Predicates in
Languages: Emergence, Typology, Evolution”), a French-German project jointly
funded by French ANR and German DFG for 3 years (2022–25), around the typology
of Verb-based Complex Predicates (e.g. serial verb constructions; auxiliaries;
converbs; light verb constructions).  

The ComPLETE project involves a consortium of 32 linguists and engineers from
both countries; it is led by Martine Vanhove (CNRS–LLACAN) and Alexandre
François (CNRS–LATTICE) in France, and by Walter Bisang and Andrej Malchukov
(Universität Mainz) in Germany.

The PhD position will be based at CNRS–LLACAN, a world-leading department in
the study of African languages. 

Starting date of contract: 15 April 2022.

Please submit your application in English, including the following:
 - Cover letter, explaining research experience and reason for interest in
this project, along
with a proposed research project (max. two pages).
 - Your CV and copies of degree certificates (Bachelor’s/Master’s diplomas
and/or
transcripts).
 - Names and contact information (including e-mail and phone) for 1-2
referees.
 - For queries, please write to martine.vanhove at cnrs.fr

deadline.
