*** CALL FOR PAPERS ***
The Journal of Comparative Germanic Linguistics
edited by Kenneth J. Safir, Rutgers University
Gert Webelhuth, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
The Journal of Comparative Germanic Linguistics provides a platform
for discussion of theoretical linguistic research into the modern and
older languages and dialects of the Germanic family. Contributions
that establish robust empirical generalizations within a formal theory
of grammar that permit precise discussion are welcome. The empirical
range of the work may either involve cross-linguistic comparison
within the Germanic family, or elucidate issues in Germanic
linguistics through the exemplary analysis of one Germanic language.
Papers dealing mostly with modern English are required to have strong
cross-Germanic implications. Areas of linguistics to be covered
include Morphology, Phonology, Pragmatics, Semantics and Syntax. The
journal will be published three times per year in the English
language. Squibs, replies, book and dissertation reviews as well as
researcher profiles will be included.

ANNOUNCEMENT / CALL FOR PAPERS
Sixth International Conference on Chinese Linguistics
Leiden, 19-21 June 1997
http://iias.leidenuniv.nl/host/iccl-6/
ICCL-6 AT LEIDEN
Since its foundation in 1992, the International Association of Chinese
Linguistics (IACL) has convened annual conferences in Singapore,
Paris, Hong Kong, Madison and Hsin-chu. Leiden University, with its
long traditions in sinology and in linguistics, is proud to organize
this event in 1997.
The Sixth International Conference on Chinese Linguistics (ICCL-6)
will be held in Leiden, Holland, from 19 to 21 June 1997. The
conference is organized by Rint Sybesma and Jeroen Wiedenhof of the
Sinological Institute, Leiden University, in close cooperation with
the Inter- national Institute for Asian Studies (IIAS) . The IIAS also
acts as the main sponsor of the event.
CONFERENCE THEME
True to the IACL tradition, the Leiden ICCL-6 conference welcomes
papers on a wide variety of topics, such as syntax, phonology,
historical linguistics, dialect studies, language teaching, and first
and second language acquisition. We aim at providing anyone working in
Chinese linguistics with an opportunity to present their work and to
keep up with recent developments.
The ICCL-6 conference theme will be:
THE CHINESE LANGUAGES: THEORY AND DESCRIPTION
Due to the great number of different Chinese languages and dialects,
large areas of terra incognita are still to be explored. At the same
time, students of Chinese linguistics, like linguists anywhere, are
faced with a barrage of methods and theories.
Our conference theme covers both types of diversity. Keynote papers
will reflect the rich variety of Chinese languages and a wide range of
linguistic disciplines. As Leiden University has traditions in both
theoretical and descriptive linguistics, the organizers hope to make
ICCL-6 a meeting place for linguists working in different and often
complementary approaches to human language.
CALL FOR PAPERS
We welcome original papers on all aspects relevant to Chinese
linguistics. Our deadline for abstracts is 31 December 1996. Please
send us one camera-ready copy indicating your name and affiliation,
and four anonymous copies. Abstracts may be written in English or
Chinese and should be limited to one page only (A4 or legal size). We
cannot accept abstracts sent to us by email or fax. Please send your
contributions to the address indicated below.
YOUNG SCHOLAR AWARD
ICCL-6 invites young scholars who wish to compete for the 1997 Young
Scholar Award to submit their papers. The competition is open for IACL
members aged 35 or below (by 19 June 1997) who do not hold positions
equal to or exceeding the rank of Associate Professor (US/Chinese
system), Senior Lecturer (British system) or UHD (Dutch system). Proof
of age and rank must be provided. Finalists will be given subsidies to
attend ICCL-6, where the award will be presented. Papers are due 31
December 1996 and should be

- in English or Chinese;
