Meeting Description:

20th Annual Meeting of the Association of Portuguese and Spanish-lexified
Creoles on (current or former) language contact settings involving Portuguese
and/or Spanish

Call for Papers:

The 20th conference of the  ACBLPE will be held at the University of Augsburg
in Augsburg, Germany, from September 8 - 10, 2022. 

Abstracts addressing any aspect of language contact involving Spanish and/or
Portuguese are invited, including, but not limited to, structural,
variational, and ecolinguistic issues. We especially welcome contributions to
one of these research areas:

Firstly, as the conference name suggests, we invite you to discuss the
continuity between the different results of contact-induced language
restructuring (ranging from second language acquisition and interlanguage
fossilization processes to creolization, and from code-switching phenomena and
different types of lexical borrowing to the formation of mixed languages).
Similarly, we would like to address the continuity between contact linguistics
and related domains (anthropology, sociology, and population genetics). A
further area of interest is the historical configuration of
(Ibero-)creolistics as a linguistic (sub)discipline, one which can be regarded
as more or less autonomous and is generally situated at a crossroads between
different research areas like Romance, African and Austronesian studies.

Secondly, we invite you to explore issues that could be associated, directly
or indirectly, with the spirit of the host city, which is famous for two
historical traditions. On the one hand, Augsburg has led a centuries-old quest
for peaceful encounters across ideas and traditionally opposed confessions
(This city is known, for good reason, as the ''city of peace'' (Ger.
“Friedensstadt”) between Protestants and Catholics). On the other hand,
Augsburg has also played a central role —above all, through the Fugger and
Welser families in the 16th century— in the formation of transcontinental
trade networks, including, sadly, a prominent participation in the slave
trade. With this in mind, we also welcome work on social and linguistic
conflicts and their possible resolutions (including aspects of language policy
and multilingual education, among others). This may also include pieces
focused on the linguistic consequences of the emergence of globalization and
capitalism as of the Early Modern period.

Thirdly, we would like to encourage the participation of colleagues whose
expertise is in line with the research areas of the organizer of this event,
the Chair of Applied Linguistics (Romance Studies), particularly
Guarani-Romance and Bantu-Romance language contact, migrant varieties in Latin
America, and linguistic geography in multilingual environments.

The abstracts, which cannot exceed the limit of 400 words, can be submitted
through ConfTool(https://acblpe.philhist.uni-augsburg.de/registration/) from
January 1 to March 15, 2022. Notifications of acceptance will be sent by April
15. 

As usual, abstracts will be assessed on the basis of the following three
criteria:

(1) The relevance and significance of the proposed topic within the framework
of the conference and the ACBLPE research areas.
(2) Clarity of argument, methodology and theoretical framework.
(3) The possible contribution the paper can make in the context of previous
and current research in the same field.

Keynote speakers: 

Peter Bakker
John Lipski
Nicholas Quint
Azucena Palacios
Armin Schwegler

The ACBLPE annual meeting will be one of the events devoted to language
contact during a week that will also include the workshop ''Creole studies in
motion'' (September 7) and the 2nd meeting of the ''Red Internacional BayMis''
(September 10 / Keynote speaker: John Lipski). All ACBLPE-participants will be
able to attend the latter two workshops and take part in the discussions. 

Looking forward to meeting you in Augsburg,

The organizing committee:

Dr. Miguel Gutiérrez Maté (Augsburg)
Prof. Dr. Joachim Steffen (Augsburg)
Prof. Dr. Evelyn Wiesinger (Tübingen)
Dr. Eduardo Tobar Delgado (Vigo)
Leonie Ette (Augsburg)
Christian Wilson (Augsburg)
Niklas Schmidt (Augsburg)
