Meeting Description:

The 44th annual conference of the International Computer Archieve of Modern
and Medieval English (ICAME44) is hosted by the North-West University in
Vanderbijlpark, South Africa, from 17 to 21 May 2023. The conference format
will be hybrid, with on-site and on-line participation possible.

The conference theme is “English going places, Corpora crossing spaces”.
Participants are invited to reflect on how the diffusion of English across
spaces – physical, virtual or metaphorical – contributes to shape the
language.

Venue
The conference will be held in Vanderbijlpark, South Africa, at the Emerald
Resort. The resort simultaneously provides the venue and accommodation. It is
about 95km away from OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg.

Transport from the airport be arranged to conference attendees who require it
on the two days prior to the conference, and back to the airport after the
completion of the conference, as there are no direct public transport options
linking the airport and Vanderbijlpark. There is a direct connection by
highway, for attendees who want to rent a vehicle or book a taxi/Uber in the
alternative.

Contact
All questions about submissions or the conference should be emailed to the
conference organiser, Bertus van Rooy, using e-mail address a.j.vanrooy [at]
uva.nl.

More information is also available on the conference website - ICAME44 |

information.
