Dear friends and colleagues
I would like to share with you the news about our upcoming Seminar within the Jawun Research Centre Multidisciplinary seminar series, of interest to a wide variety of linguists.
On 7 June, Wednesday, 3-5 pm approx, Dr Florence Boulard will be talking about 'Pacific French: A Migrant story'.
The abstract is as follows:
One of Australia's closest east-side neighbours is the Franco-Melanesian Island known as New Caledonia/Kanaky. Despite Australia's proximity to this island, my 20 years' experience as a migrant has taught me that the South Pacific islands are often misunderstood by the general public. This presentation will introduce 21st century New Caledonia/Kanaky as an interwoven part of Australia's future. The presentation will discuss the people, languages, and cultures of my island home. In particular, this seminar draws attention to the vehicle of education which creates a window of opportunity to bring attention to Pacific French and help transform the imagery of the South Pacific islands.

Subject: A special seminar: 19 April, Wedn 3-5 pm approx, John Mansfield, 'Linguistic divergence vs order'
Dear friends and colleagues
It gives me a great pleasure to announce our upcoming Special Seminar within the Jawun Research Centre Multidisciplinary seminar series.
On 19 April, Wednesday, 3-5 pm approx, Dr John Mansfield will be talking about 'Linguistic divergence vs order'
Abstract: Typological and historical research shows that languages in close contact with one another often develop similar grammatical structures, while maintaining sharp distinctions in their lexical forms. Social contact between groups seems to promote grammatical convergence, sometimes accompanied by lexical divergence. However the lexical/grammatical dividing line in language is not always easy to draw, and the nuanced effects of social contact on linguistic divergence therefore require further exploration. In this talk I begin with some examples from the Daly region of northern Australia, suggesting that the divergence/convergence dynamic may be better formulated as a matter of form vs order, or form vs semantics, rather than lexicon vs grammar. I then present a global survey of dialect differentiation that offers some support for this proposal.
