Subject: Sicily Evolution of Language Summer School 

A summer school will be held in Erice (Sicily) from 14-19 july 2007, organised
by Luc Steels and Vittorio Loretto. It surveys research on Language Evolution
from the viewpoint of complex systems science, linguistics and computational
linguistics. The school is a satelite of Statphys 2007. 

The main school (http://pil.phys.uniroma1.it/erice2007/index.html) brings
together about 30 lecturers, with linguists including: Ben Bergen, Bill Croft,
Bruno Galantucci, Susan Goldin-Meadow,  Jean-Marie Hombert, Jim Hurford, Laura

exercises and hands-on experience. 

Pre-registration is required before April 1 2007.
