Call for Proposals:

The Fifth Annual Meeting of the Slavic Linguistics Society
University of Chicago
29-31 October 2010
http://lucian.uchicago.edu/blogs/sls2010/

The purpose of the Slavic Linguistic Society is to create a community of
students and scholars interested in Slavic linguistics in its broadest
sense, that is, the systematic and scholarly study of the Slavic languages
and the contacts of Slavic with non-Slavic languages. The Society aspires to
be as open and inclusive as possible; no school, framework, approach, or
theory is presupposed, nor is there any restriction in terms of geography,
academic affiliation or status.

Papers dealing with any aspect of Slavic linguistics as understood above and
within any framework are appropriate including sociolinguistics,
computational linguistics, language acquisition, etc.. The only restriction
is that all papers should address an issue pertaining to Slavic linguistics
as defined above. We encourage everyone to participate and ask you to share
this announcement with as many colleagues and students as possible. In view
of the openness of our orientation, all papers are expected to be readily
intelligible to other scholars, regardless of theoretical orientation.

ABSTRACT GUIDELINES:
-500 word maximum
-2 page maximum (the second page may be used for tables, figures and references)
-Word doc or PDF format
-Place the title at the top of the first page; do not include your name,
institution, or any identifying information on the abstract
