Call for Papers: GLAC 10/SHEL 3

The 10th annual conference of the Society of Germanic Linguistics and
the 3rd annual conference on Studies in the History of the English
Language will be held jointly in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

SHEL 3 will be held May 6-7, 2004
GLAC 10 will be held May 7-8, 2004

Faculty, graduate students, and independent scholars are invited to
submit abstracts for 20-minute papers to either SHEL or GLAC. Proposals
to GLAC may be on any linguistic or philological aspect of any
historical or modern Germanic language or dialect, including English (to
the Early Modern period) and the extraterritorial varieties. Proposals
to SHEL may be on any linguistic or philological aspect of the history
of English. A single author may submit one abstract to GLAC and one to
SHEL. Authors may submit two abstracts to the same conference if one is
jointly authored.

Papers from a range of linguistic and philological subfields, including
phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics,
sociolinguistics, stylistics, metrics, language acquisition, contact,
and change, as well as differing theoretical perspectives, are welcome
for both conferences. SHEL will also host a pedagogy workshop; we
welcome proposals for 20-minute pedagogical presentations.

We strongly encourage a submission of intent (name and provisional paper
title) by Dec. 1, 2003. Full proposals are due Jan. 15, 2004. Abstracts
can be submitted in print form or electronically; for those submitting
abstracts electronically, please send them as PDF files if they contain
any specialized fonts.
