Meeting Description:

Morfologiedagen -- Morphology Days in the Low Countries 

We are happy to announce that Morphology Days in the Low Countries (MiLC 2020)
will take place in Utrecht in April, 2020 (April 8 and 9). These days form a
revival and a continuation of the  Morphology Days that used to be an
international meeting dealing with morphology that took place in either the
Netherlands or Belgium. The three most recent editions were organized in
Louvain-la-Neuve (2017), Leuven (2015) and Leeuwarden (2013).


Call for Papers:

The organization invites contributions dealing with issues in morphology, for
either regular oral presentation or presentation as a poster preceded by a
short oral pitch. 
The general program deals with issues in morphology from various different
perspectives; that is, the series has no particular signature or preference
with respect to the choice of theoretical approach, framework, model or
theory. 
In addition to this program, the Utrecht organization proposes a special
workshop on Gender and Morphology, focusing on two different aspects:

(i) Gender and derivational (word formation) processes: explicitly female
words for societal functions and roles. The theme includes sociolinguistic and
psycholinguistic points of view.
(ii) Gender and agreement phenomena (morpho-syntax-semantics-discourse):
matching and/or mismatches between grammatical and natural gender reflected in
determiner choice, pronouns of various types, referential dependencies and
discourse anaphors (among others). The topic includes contributions on
dialectal, regional and/or historical variation.

Abstract Submission Guidelines:

Abstracts in English or Dutch should be anonymous and no longer than 500 words
(including examples, but excluding bibliography), with margins of at least 2.5
cm, font size 12, single-spaced. The file should be anonymous both in the body
of the text and in the filename. Please make sure all fonts and figures are
correctly rendered.
Submissions are limited to a maximum of one individual and one joint abstract
per author for the entire 2 day-event. Please indicate in your submission
whether your abstract should be considered for the main session, or for the
workshop on gender and morphology. Please also indicate whether your paper is
to be considered for oral or poster presentation. The abstracts should be
submitted in .PDF format through Easychair before February, 3 (2020):

Notifications of decisions will be sent out on March, 2 at the latest, while
the program will be available on March, 16 at the latest.
