SORBONNE NOUVELLE UNIVERSITY GRADUATE LINGUISTICS SYMPOSIUM

SNUGLS 2014

INSTITUT DU MONDE ANGLOPHONE, PARIS 3

March 21st, 2014


CALL FOR PAPERS



The research team SeSyLiA (Semantics and Syntax - Language In Action), part of PRISMES (EA 4398), in conjunction with the ED 514, is pleased to host the fifth edition of SNUGLS which will be held in Paris at the Institut du Monde Anglophone, 5 rue de l’Ecole de Médecine, on March 21st, 2014. The goal of the conference is to bring together junior researchers and give them an opportunity to practice their presentation skills in English and discuss their work with specialists in their field. This year, we are delighted to welcome Dr Yann Fuchs from Université Paris-Nord (Paris 13) as our keynote speaker.


Graduate students (i.e. second-year Master and Ph-D students) as well as first-year post-docs are encouraged to apply. The conference language is English and each presentation will be allotted a 20-minute slot followed by 10 minutes for discussion.


Topics relevant to the conference encompass all fields of linguistics focusing on the English language, including, but not restricted to, language acquisition, language teaching, conversation analysis, discourse analysis, and linguistic structure. Different perspectives can be adopted (methods of data collection, multimodality, etc.). Contributions exploring the questions of ‘affect’, ‘stance’ and ‘intersubjectivity’ or any other related subjects (dialogicity, expression of emotions, modality, etc.) will be greatly appreciated.


In order to help participants become more competent communicators, two discussion sessions will be organized during the day to provide friendly feedback.


Submission guidelines:


Abstracts of 400 words (excluding references) with a title and 5 keywords should be sent in two copies to snugls2014 at gmail.com as Word file attachments. One copy should be made ready for anonymous refereeing while the other should include the name(s), institutional affiliation(s) and contact information of the author(s).


Abstracts will be selected by a scientific committee composed of academic researchers, including members of the SeSyLiA team, at Sorbonne Nouvelle, Paris 3.


Deadline for abstract submission: February 3rd, 2014


Notification of acceptance: February 24th, 2014


Organization Committee: Frédérique Atangana, Pauline Beaupoil, Laurent David, Pascale Manoilov and Leslie Tahan.
