Linguistic Field(s): Morphology 

Call Deadline: 30-Jun-2016 

Meeting Description:

New Fields for Morphology aims to bring together linguists working on the
morphology of less widely studied languages who are also interested in
morphological theory.

The main purpose of the workshop is to engage morphological theory with
exciting new empirical data, especially from the Australia + Pacific region.
We hope to foster a community of morphologists concerned with both empirical
and theoretical issues in Australia and abroad. Contributions are ideally
based on first-hand data of individual languages or adopt a broadly
comparative perspective.

All theoretical frameworks are equally welcome including papers which do not
fit in with any particular framework. Papers that adopt a diachronic or
comparative perspective are also welcomed to the extent they engage
theoretical concerns.

Invited Speakers
Gregory Stump (University of Kentucky): 
‘Morphological description and the algebra of morphotactics’

Location & Dates:

University of Melbourne, Australia
29-30 November 2016

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and 
as such can receive donations through the eLinguistics Foundation, 
which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal 
Tax number is 45-4211155. 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 eLinguistics 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!
