Description:
The II Summer School in Catalan Linguistics (EDELC 2022) will be held from 7
to 10 September 2022, at the University of Oxford. EDELC intends to be a
meeting point for students and professors of Catalan linguistics based in
Catalan-speaking territories and elsewhere. EDELC 2022 is organized by
Institut Ramon Llull, the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge,
and Queen Mary University of London, in collaboration with the Government of
the Balearic Islands (Direcció General de Política Lingüística) and the
University of the Balearic Islands (UIB).

EDELC aims at offering training in Catalan linguistics to undergraduate and
postgraduate students, with special attention to students from universities
outside Catalan-speaking areas who have an interest in Catalan or have already
begun to investigate some aspect of its linguistics. In addition to the
introductory courses in different areas of Catalan linguistics, EDELC 2022
will include tutorials dedicated to specific aspects of the courses and a
space for the presentation of work by students, which will enable direct
interaction with specialists. EDELC therefore wants to facilitate
collaborations, co-supervision, and the creation of a supportive network in
linguistic studies on Catalan.

EDELC 2022 will include four introductory courses in one of the following
areas:

Phonetics & phonology
Morphology
Semantics & pragmatics
Syntax
Lexicology
Sociolinguistics
Historical and diachronic linguistics
Acquisition of Catalan as a first or additional language

Each course will have a duration of 5 hours distributed as follows: 3 plenary
sessions, open to all attendees (which will combine theoretical explanations
with practical activities), and 1 tutorial session (for those attendees who
want to solve doubts and delve into the contents of a specific course).

Plenary session 1 (introduction). Duration: 1 hour
Plenary session 2. Duration: 1.5 hours
Plenary session 3. Duration: 1.5 hours
Tutoring session. Duration: 1 hour

Teachers of the selected courses will receive a fee and will be covered for
flights and accommodation expenses. They will be invited to enjoy a guided
tour of the city of Oxford.

We welcome course proposals that offer an introduction to a particular aspect
of any of the 8 areas listed above. Proposals can adopt a theoretical or an
experimental perspective, or an interdisciplinary approach that incorporates
knowledge from psychology, computer science, or social sciences, among others.
