Meeting Description:

The Linguistics Program at the CUNY Graduate Center will host the 43rd Linguistic Symposium on Romance Languages, April 17-19, 2013. On April 18, 2013, there will be a Special Plenary Session on Romance Parsed Corpora.

Invited Speakers for Main Session:

Paola Benincà, University of Padua
Ricardo Otheguy, CUNY Graduate Center
Lori Repetti, Stony Brook University

Special Session on Romance Parsed Corpora:

Alongside providing a general platform for dissemination of research on Romance linguistics, the LSRL43 organizers would like to place a special focus on an important emerging area of research in Romance: Parsed Corpora. Our Special Session on Romance Parsed Corpora will be a Plenary event, so that all conference participants will have the opportunity to learn about some of the most exciting advances in syntax which are based on these very recently created and innovative tools. Invited speakers for the Special Plenary Session on Romance Parsed Corpora are:

Charlotte Galves, University of Campinas
Anthony Kroch and Beatrice Santorini, University of Pennsylvania
Ana Maria Martins, University of Lisbon

Final Call for Papers:

Note: The abstract submission deadline has been extended to December 16, 2012.

The organizers of LSRL43 invite abstracts for 20-minute talks (plus 10 minutes for discussion) on any aspect of Romance Linguistics. In the spirit of the focus of the Special Plenary Session on Romance Parsed Corpora (see above), we also welcome abstract submissions for regular parallel session (20-minute) talks, which are on research based on parsed corpora in Romance.

All abstracts should be no more than two pages in length (including examples and references), in 12-point type, 8.5x11-inch page setup (= US Letter), with 1-inch margins. Submissions are limited to one individual and one joint abstract per author.
