WORKSHOP ON THE LANGUAGES OF PAPUA  4

23-26 January 2017

***

Papers are invited dealing with the "Papuan" (ie. non-Austronesian) 
languages spoken in eastern Indonesia, the greater New Guinea region, 
and the Solomon Islands. Equally welcome are papers concerned with the 
Austronesian languages spoken in the same areas, including the contact 
varieties of Malay, as well as Tok Pisin and Solomon Islands Pidgin. 
Papers may be in any of the subfields of linguistics, and may represent 
variegated approaches and diverse theoretical persuasions. Papers are to 
be delivered in English.
