Meeting Description:

Conference theme: ‘Le français et ses frontières’ / 'The French
language and its borders'

The next AFLS annual conference will take place from 7 to 9 September
2023 at the University of Lille in France (in person only). The
University of Lille lies in the Hauts-de-France Region, a changing
territory, a migratory passage zone towards Northern Europe and the
United Kingdom; the Hauts-de-France Region is also a reception zone
for foreigners, and a border city with Belgium. In this context, the
annual conference proposes to address the linguistic, sociolinguistic
and didactic issues of French and its borders by exploring:
- the (socio)linguistic dimension: what variations (spatial,
situational, linguistic), varieties and uses of French might be
observed within or across borders? What language policies are
associated with them?
- the acquisitional/didactic dimension: what constraints do physical
and/or psychological borders imply on language learning, especially in
a migratory context? What are the impacts on the teaching of French
within and outside borders?

It is therefore intended to question the borders of the French
language as a finite boundary but also as a more distant and permeable
border.

2nd Call for Papers:

DEADLINE EXTENDED - 15th MARCH

AFLS Annual Conference 2023
‘The French language and its borders’
7-9 September 2023, University of Lille (France)
Organised by Emmanuelle Canut and Juliette Delahaie, Professors in
Language Sciences The next AFLS annual conference will take place from
7 to 9 September 2023 at the University of Lille in France (in person
only). The University of Lille lies in the Hauts-de-France Region, a
changing territory, a migratory passage zone towards Northern Europe
and the United Kingdom ; the Hauts-deFrance Region is also a reception
zone for foreigners, and a border city with Belgium. In this context,
the annual conference proposes to address the linguistic,
sociolinguistic and didactic issues of French and its borders by
exploring:

- the (socio)linguistic dimension: what variations (spatial,
situational, linguistic), varieties and uses of French might be
observed within or across borders? What language policies are
associated with them?
- the acquisitional/didactic dimension: what constraints do physical
and/or psychological borders imply on language learning, especially in
a migratory context? What are the impacts on the teaching of French
within and outside borders?

It is therefore intended to question the borders of the French
language as a finite boundary but also as a more distant and permeable
border.
We invite papers that address any topic in the broad area of ‘The
French language and its borders / Le français et ses frontières’ or
that fall within the areas traditionally covered by AFLS. Papers
taking a wide variety of theoretical and methodological approaches are
welcome.
Proposals may take the form of a paper or a workshop (panel of 4 oral
papers followed by time for synthesis/discussion).
Speakers will be given 30 minutes for oral papers (20 minutes, plus 10
minutes for questions). The workshops will not exceed 2 hours.

To submit a proposal, please send your proposal, with a separate file
containing your contact details (name, first name, university,
laboratory if applicable, e-mail address) and those of the panel
members if it is a panel, to the following address:
afls2023 at univ-lille.fr

Abstracts should be no longer than 300 words (including title and
references), plus 5 keywords. For workshops, put the presentation and
the 4 abstracts in the same document.
Abstracts should be anonymized, and should state explicitly which
field they focus on (using the keywords to do so).
Conference papers are welcome in either French or English, and
abstracts should be written in the language of the presentation.
