Meeting Description:

A Germanic Sandwich 2015 will be the fifth in a series of conferences in which
Dutch is compared with its closest Germanic neighbours, English and German.
The first edition took place in Berlin in 2005 to commemorate the appearance
of Nederlands tussen Duits en Engels (‘Dutch between German and English’), a
study by the renowned Dutch linguist C.B. van Haeringen. Subsequent editions
were held in Sheffield (2008), Oldenburg (2010) and Leuven (2013). This
two-day conference will take place on 24 and 25 April 2015 at the University
of Nottingham (UK Campus).

2nd Call for Papers:

We invite abstracts for talks of 20 minutes (+ 10 minutes’ discussion), in which Dutch is compared to German and/or English (other Germanic languages may of course be included as well). We welcome studies with a typological and/or comparative perspective, dealing with questions about structural aspects of the languages, their history or their status. Studies from a language acquisition or psycholinguistic perspective are also welcome. 

Abstracts of c. 500 words can be sent to alan.scott at nottingham.ac.uk. The conference languages are Dutch, English and German. The deadline for submission is 3 November 2014; notification of acceptance will take place during January 2015.
