Invited speaker: Mary Dalrymple, University of Oxford

Please note:
This year's LFG conference is co-located with the Linguistics
Association of Ghana conference.

LFG24 welcomes work within the formal architecture of
Lexical-Functional Grammar as well as
typological, formal, and computational work within the 'spirit of LFG'
as a lexicalist approach to
language employing a parallel, constraint-based framework. The
conference aims to promote
interaction and collaboration among researchers interested in
non-derivational approaches to
grammar, where grammar is seen as the interaction of (perhaps
violable) constraints from multiple
levels of structuring, including those of syntactic categories,
grammatical relations, semantics and
discourse.

Call for Papers:

SUBMISSIONS: TALKS AND POSTERS, DISSERTATION SESSION

The main conference sessions will involve 45-minute talks (30 min + 15
min discussion), and poster
presentations. Contributions can focus on results from completed as
well as ongoing research, with
an emphasis on novel approaches, methods, ideas, and perspectives,
whether descriptive, theoretical,
formal or computational. Presentations should describe original,
unpublished work.
There is also a special session for recent dissertations (20-minute
talk + 10 min discussion).

TIMETABLE

Deadline for abstracts: 15 February 2024, 23:59 UTC-12 (midnight

SUBMISSION SPECIFICATIONS

The language of the conference is English, and all abstracts must be
written in English.

All abstracts should be submitted using the online submission system.
Submissions should be in the
form of abstracts only. Abstracts can be up to three A4 pages,
including figures and
references. Abstracts should be in 10pt or larger type, with margins
of at least 2cm on all four
sides, and should include a title. Omit name and affiliation
(including in PDF document properties),
and avoid obvious self-reference.

For dissertation session submissions, please add "Dissertation" to the
title of your abstract.

Please submit your abstract in .pdf format (or a plain text file).

The number of submissions is not restricted. However, in the interests
of high participation and
broad representation, each author should be involved in a maximum of
two oral papers and can only be
a single author of one. There are no restrictions on poster
presentations. Authors may want to keep
this in mind when stating their preferences concerning the mode of
presentation of their
submissions.

All abstracts will be reviewed anonymously by at least three referees.
Papers accepted to the
conference can be submitted to the refereed proceedings, and will be
published, subject to
acceptance, online by PubliKon at the University of Konstanz. (Please
note that papers submitted
to the proceedings are no longer automatically accepted for
publication in the proceedings.)
