Meeting Description:

The 9th international Germanic Sandwich workshop - on the contrastive
study of Dutch, English and German - will be hosted by the Department
of Linguistics and English Language at Lancaster University on 11-12
April 2024.

Consistent with its geographical intermediate location, Dutch has been
argued to occupy a linguistic position in between German and English.
The case for this relationship was first made in a detailed way by the
Dutch linguist C.B. van Haeringen in 1956 and has been the subject of
a now well-established series of Germanic Sandwich workshops.

Like the previous editions in Berlin (2005), Sheffield (2008),
Oldenburg (2010), Leuven (2013), Nottingham (2015), Munster (2017),
Amsterdam (2019) and Cologne (2022), the 9th Germanic Sandwich
workshop in Lancaster will be dedicated to contrastive research on
various aspects of the neighbors and close relatives that Dutch,
English and German are.

The workshop welcomes studies of (dis)similarities between these three
languages from a synchronic and/or a diachronic perspective and
covering domains such as phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics
and/or pragmatics. It is also open to contrastive work dealing with -
among other things - psycholinguistics and language acquisition and to
comparisons with other (West) Germanic languages like Afrikaans and
Frisian.

The full schedule and the abstracts can be downloaded from the
workshop website and registration, also via the website, closes on 24
March 2024.
