Call for Papers

In the same spirit as the previous conferences of this series (SWL1 - Leipzig
2004, SWL2 - Lancaster 2006, and SWL3 - Berlin 2008), SWL4 will provide a forum
for linguists working on the syntax of less widely studied languages or language
varieties. Its main purpose is enlarging our knowledge and understanding of
syntactic diversity. Contributions are expected to be data-driven, and the
discussion of theoretical issues is appreciated to the extent that it helps to
elucidate the data and remains understandable to persons that are not
specialists of the relevant theory. All major theoretical frameworks are equally
welcome, and papers that adopt a diachronic or comparative perspective are also
welcome, as well as papers dealing with morphological or semantic issues, in so
far as syntactic issues also play a major role.

Abstracts of no more than one page (plus possibly one additional page for
examples), should be sent in PDF format to Denis Creissels
(denis.creissels at univ-lyon2.fr) before 31st January 2010, with "SWL4" in the
subject line. Submissions should be anonymous and refrain from self-reference.
Please provide contact details (name, phone, fax) and the title of your
presentation in the body of the email. Participants may not be involved in more
than two abstracts, of which at most one may be single-authored. The conference
will be held in English and French; abstracts may be submitted in either language.

Notification of acceptance by the 31st of March 2010. 

A limited number of small grants might be available for participants with
limited funding. Information will be announced later.
