Call for papers - Syntax of the World's Languages VI - Last reminder

[Silvia Luraghi]

*** Apologies for cross-posting ***

The sixth `Syntax of the World's Languages' 
conference (SWL6) will be held at the University 
of Pavia, Italy, on 8-10 September 2014.
In the same spirit as previous conferences in 
this series (SWL I - Leipzig 2004, SWL II -
Lancaster 2006, SWL III - Berlin 2008, SWL IV - 
Lyon 2010, and SWL V - Dubrovnik 2012), the conference will provide a
forum for linguists working on the syntax of less 
widely studied languages from a variety of perspectives.

The main purpose of the conference is to enlarge 
our knowledge and understanding of
syntactic diversity. Contributions are expected 
to be based on first-hand data of
individual languages or to adopt a broadly 
comparative perspective. The discussion of
theoretical issues is appreciated to the extent 
that it helps to elucidate the data
and is understandable without prior knowledge of the relevant theory.

All theoretical frameworks are equally welcome, 
and papers that adopt a diachronic or
comparative perspective are also welcome, as are 
papers dealing with morphological
or semantic issues, as long as syntactic issues also play a major role.

Abstracts of no more than one page (plus possibly 
one additional page for examples),
should be sent in PDF format to 
<mailto:swl6.conference at gmail.com>swl6.conference at gmail.com 
by January 31st, 2014, with
''SWL6 abstract'' in the subject line (authors 
will receive notification of acceptance
by March 31st, 2014). Submissions should be 
anonymous and refrain from self-reference.
Please provide contact details (name and email 
address) and the title of your presentation
in the body of the email. Participants may not be 
involved in more than two abstracts,
of which at most one may be single-authored. The 
conference will be held in English
and abstracts must be submitted in English.
