Meeting Description:

Colour and colour naming: crosslinguistic approaches is an international conference that will take place in Lisbon, on July 2-3, 2015. It will be hosted by Centro de Linguística da Universidade de Lisboa.

Colour names behave quite differently in different languages. This conference offers a chance to explore colour naming processes on a crosslinguistic approach, in order to trace relevant linguistic issues and interesting interconnections to other scientific domains.

The conference will be organized around talks, followed by an informal discussion.
Poster sessions will also be offered.

Keynote Speakers:

Steven Dworkin, University of Michigan, USA
Carla Marello, Università degli Studi di Torino, IT
Maria Grossmann, Università dell’Aquila, IT

This conference is sponsored by the European Network of e-Lexicography (ENeL - COST Action IS1305) / WG4 - Lexicography and lexicology from a pan-european perspective.

Call for Papers:

See the full call for papers at:
