Meeting Description:

The renowned Dutch linguist C.B. van Haeringen showed in his 1956 book
‘Nederlands tussen Duits en Engels’ that Dutch not only holds the middle
ground between German and English with respect to the area where it is spoken,
but is also ‘in between’ these languages in a highly systematic way when it
comes to its linguistic structure. Though Van Haeringen’s account of this
‘Germanic Sandwich’ pattern focused on how Dutch historically drifted towards
more analytic structures, later comparative investigations expanded this work
considerably, adding more linguistic phenomena, highlighting structural and
typological patterns and differences, and exploring psycho- and
sociolinguistic explanations as well.


Call for Papers:

We invite abstracts for 20-minute talks (+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 typological and/or comparative studies
dealing with questions about structural aspects of these languages, their
history or their status. Studies from a language acquisition or
psycholinguistic perspective are also welcome. Abstracts should be written in
one of the conference languages (English, Dutch, German) and may be no more
than 1 A4 in length, including all figures and references. Please submit your
abstract via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/cfp/GS2019
