Meeting Description: 

The 1st International Postgraduate Conference on New Research in Occitan 
Studies

Centre Universitaire Jean-François Champollion, Albi
11- 12 June 2009

In the context of the increasingly diverse and interdisciplinary nature of
research on Occitan language and culture, researchers dealing with any aspects
of Occitan linguistics are invited to attend this two-day conference in order to
share ideas and exchange methods with fellow young researchers in Occitan studies. 

The conference aims to provide an interactive forum where constructive 
discussions between postgraduates and established scholars can encourage 
collaborative projects and identify new areas of research. Contributions on all
aspects of Occitan language and culture will be presented, on topics such as
linguistics, history, literature, sociology, musicology, and ethnography. 

The plenary talks will be given by: 

Philippe Martel (Researcher C.N.R.S., University Paul Valéry, Montpellier)
Jean-Pierre Chambon (Professor, University Paris Sorbonne, Paris IV)

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such 
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non 
Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be 
offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers 
only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any 
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting 
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills 
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure 
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. 
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
