Meeting Description:

Trondheim, the host of the very first Comparative Germanic Syntax Workshop in
1984, is very pleased to ‘welcome home’ CGSW 32, which will be hosted by the
Department of Language and Literature at NTNU Norwegian University of Science
and Technology.

The Comparative Germanic Syntax Workshop (CGSW) is an annual conference
bringing together researchers with a comparative interest in the syntactic
variation attested in Germanic languages, past and present. See
http://www.let.rug.nl/~zwart/cgsw/ for an overview of CGSW’s history.

CGSW 32 will feature a two-day general workshop on 14 and 15 September. In
addition to the main workshop, we will host a special pre-workshop focusing on
variation in Germanic from a psycholinguistic perspective. We construe the
definition of “variation” broadly and invite any work that touches on the
processing of one or many Germanic languages by native, non-native, and
heritage speakers. The pre-workshop will be held on 13 September.

Invited Speakers:

Elisabet Engdahl (Gothenburg)
Tanja Kupisch (Konstanz and Tromsø)
Christina Tortora (CUNY)


Call for Papers:

We invite abstracts for thirty-minute talks (followed by ten minutes of
discussion) on any aspect of comparative Germanic syntax, including diachronic
syntax and the interface between syntax and other components of the grammar.

We also invite abstracts for the pre-workshop on any aspect of the
psycholinguistics of variation in Germanic.

Abstract Guidelines:

Abstracts should not exceed two pages (A4 or letter size), with 2.5cm margins
on all sides and a font size of 12pt. This includes data, references and
diagrams.

Each author may submit no more than one single-authored and one co-authored
abstract, or two co-authored ones.
Abstracts must be anonymous and prospective presenters should submit their
abstract through EasyChair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cgsw32.

You will be asked to indicate in the submission process whether you wish your
abstract to be considered (a) only for the main workshop; (b) only for the
pre-workshop on the psycholinguistics of variation in Germanic; or (c) for
both the main workshop and pre-workshop.

The deadline for submission is April 15, 2017 (midnight CEST/6 pm US Eastern
time). Notification of acceptance will be sent May 15, 2017.

Further information:

The conference website can be found at http://www.ntnu.edu/isl/cgsw-32.

This website will be regularly updated with information about the main
workshop and pre-workshop, program, and travel to and accommodation in
Trondheim.

The conference will be held in a hotel in central Trondheim. We hope to
negotiate a reduced rate at the hotel for conference attendees.
