<p>International Conference on<br>
<br>
Meter and Rhythm – Rhythm and Meter<br>
<br>
Hochschule Vechta, 21– 23 July 2009<br>
<br>
Organization: Prof. Dr. Christoph Küper, Institut für Geistes- und <br>
Kulturwissenschafte<wbr>n, Hochschule Vechta, Driverstr. 22, D-49377 Vechta, Tel. <br>
++49-4441-15301,<br>
e-mail: <a href="mailto:metrics.conference%40uni-vechta.de">metrics.conference@<wbr>uni-vechta.<wbr>de</a>. Please address all Conference <br>
correspondence to him.<br>
Conference Languages: English and German.<br>
Goals of the Conference:<br>
The conference offers an opportunity to scholars of meter and rhythm to <br>
present the results of their recent research and at the same time to learn <br>
about the research activities of their colleagues. The conference is thus <br>
analogous to the First International Conference on Metrics, which took place <br>
at the university of Vechta in 1999. The title of that conference served also <br>
as the title of the book in which the conference papers were collected and <br>
published: Meter, Rhythm and Performance – Metrum, Rhythmus, Performanz, ed. <br>
Christoph Kueper (Frankfurt a.M.: Peter Lang, 2002). <br>
This, the Second International Conference on Metrics, extends an invitation to <br>
scholars world-wide to meet and address a variety of issues regarding rhythm <br>
and meter. For example: single-language verse systems, the metrical style of <br>
specific literary epochs, single writers or single works or the connections <br>
between and among them (genesis, influences, interdependencies etc.). <br>
Empirical investigations of free rhythm and rhythmic prose are included as <br>
well. The conference is directed toward both specialists in metrics (be they <br>
in literature departments or in language departments that deal with issues of <br>
meter and rhythm) as well as linguists who (departing from the phonological <br>
analysis of speech rhythm) conduct research on topics of metrically-regulate<wbr>d <br>
verse rhythm.<br>
Whereas the conference is open to many themes and approaches, there is a focus <br>
specifically on the area of “theoretical aspects of meter.” That focus arises <br>
from the need to take stock of various competing theories and leading <br>
proponents of these views are requested to present the results of their <br>
latest research at the conference. It is hoped that these speakers establish <br>
connections to other theories and models so that scholars of different <br>
persuasions can talk to one another. In the end it is hoped that <br>
compatibilities as well as divergences clearly emerge. The procedure of <br>
extensive discussions after each paper and perhaps also a panel discussion <br>
will aid the participants in understanding and evaluating the potentials of <br>
the various theoretical starting points, the validity of their premises and <br>
their relevance for concrete verse analysis.<br>
<br>
Plenary lectures: 45 minutes + 15 minutes discussion<br>
Length of a lecture: 30 minutes + 15 minutes discussion<br>
OR<br>
20 minutes + 10 minutes discussion<br>
<br>
If you offer a paper, please send a short abstract (up to 300 words) by the <br>
end of February to the above address.<br>
