Meeting Description:

The Institute for Linguistic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences (Saint
Petersburg, Russia) is pleased to announce the 18th Conference on Typology and
Grammar for Young Scholars, which will be held in Saint Petersburg, 25–27
November 2021.

Invited Speakers:
Greville G. Corbett (University of Surrey),“Renewing the Agreement Hierarchy:
A Canonical Typology approach”
Maria Polinsky (University of Maryland),“In search of experimental syntax”
Peter Arkadiev (The Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences /
Russian State University for the Humanities), talk title to be announced

We invite submissions from young researchers (under 35 years old) working in
all areas of linguistic typology and grammatical theory, whatever the material
and theoretical framework. We especially welcome talks on the problems of
linguistic typology, reports based on authors’ original field data, and
corpus-based studies.

The conference program includes two types of talks:
 - Keynote lectures
 - Talks by young scholars

In addition, over a course of several years, a special thematic session was
organized within the conference program. In 2013, the theme chosen for the
section was grammaticalization, in 2014 it was agreement, and in 2015,
negation.

The first Conference on Typology and Grammar for Young Scholars took place in
autumn 2004 as an initiative of ILS RAS and Saint Petersburg Linguistic
Society. Since then, the tradition has continued annually, and the number of
languages presented at the conference has been steadily increasing.


Call for Papers: 

Submissions from young researchers (35 years old and younger) working in any
area of linguistic typology, corpus linguistics, grammar and phonology are
welcome. Each talk selected for presentation will be allotted 20 minutes
followed by 10 minutes of discussion. The official languages of the conference
are Russian and English. Abstracts can be written in either language. Note
that the abstract should not exceed 4000 characters (counting spaces),
excluding references and abbreviations, otherwise it will be rejected on
formal grounds. In the abstract, please specify the problem, methods and
findings of the research. One individual may be involved in a maximum of two
abstracts (maximum of one as sole author). 

The deadline for abstract submission is 3 September 2021. Anonymous abstracts
should be submitted via the conference website. 

All inquiries can be addressed to the conference email box:
youngconfspb at gmail.com. 
The decision of the Organizing Committee on acceptance/rejection of
submissions will be announced to authors no later than 19 September 2021.

There is no participation fee.

The conference will most probably be held both onsite (Institute for
Linguistic Studies RAS in Saint Petersburg, Russia) and online (Zoom), this
information will be updated later. If needed, online participation will be
possible for all accepted presentations.
