The leitmotif of the 38th PLM will be ''Linguistic topics at the start of
the new century: an overview''. The aim of PLM 2007 is to provide an
overview of current topics in linguistics in the first decade of the
21st century. Proposals of papers in any field of modern linguistics are
welcome. This includes both theoretical and applied linguistics, as well
as interdisciplinary research. So far, five thematic sessions have been
proposed:
- Slavic phonotactics (Organisers: Eugeniusz Cyran and Katarzyna
Dziubalska-Kolaczyk)
- Celtic languages -- Their description and impact (Organiser: Sabine Heinz)
- The dynamics of speech and formal phonology (Organiser: Geoffrey Schwartz)
- Anglicisms (Organiser: Marcin Kilarski)
- North American Dialects (Organiser: Radoslaw Dylewski)
Papers for these sessions are warmly invited; however, we also strongly
encourage all colleagues interested in organising their own
sessions/workshops to contact us with ideas and proposals.
Each paper will be given 30 minutes, including 5-10 minutes for
discussion; poster presentations are also an option. The language of the
conference is English.
