[Kate White]

--*The deadline for submissions to our Colloquium, discussed below, has
been extended to August 29, 2012.*--


The Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Literatures and
the Slavic Linguistics Forum at Ohio State are pleased to announce the *
Tenth Graduate Colloquium on Slavic Linguistics*.  The colloquium will take
place on Saturday October 27, 2012, at the Ohio State University campus in
Columbus, OH.



We are also very happy to announce that our keynote speaker will be Dr.
Grace Fielder. Dr. Fielder is in the Russian and Slavic Studies Department
and the Second Language Acquisition and Teaching Program at the University
of Arizona where she teaches courses on Slavic linguistics, language and
identity, and semiotics. Her research focuses on the discourse, pragmatics,
and historical sociolinguistics of the Balkan languages. She will be a
Fulbright scholar in Spring 2013 at the University of Sofia, Bulgaria,
teaching in the translation studies program. Recent publications have been
on discourse markers in the Balkan languages and include the co-translated
Bulgarian novel, Bai Ganyo.


We invite students and recent graduates working in all areas of Slavic,
Balkan, and East-European linguistics to submit abstracts. These areas
include but are not restricted to: phonetics, phonology, morphology,
syntax, semantics, pragmatics, historical linguistics, sociolinguistics,
psycholinguistics, second language acquisition, and dialectology.

We encourage students working in both formal and functional frameworks to
participate in this event.  Interdisciplinary projects from the students in
related fields such as anthropology, sociology, psychology, and comparative
studies are welcome, as far as they are related to Slavic and East-European
languages.

Each presentation will be allowed 20 minutes plus 10 minutes for
discussion.

Please send abstracts (maximum 500 words) to Kate White (white.1648 at osu.edu
).

*The abstracts should be anonymous. Please include your name, affiliation,
mailing address, and email address in the body of the email.** *

The deadline for abstract submission has been extended to August 29, 2012.

Accommodation with local graduate students will be available.
