Call for Papers:
We are pleased to welcome submissions for oral and poster
presentations. This year’s theme, Theorizing Methods in Hispanic
Linguistics, is broad and encompasses all subfields of Hispanic
Linguistics and all methodological and theoretical approaches to the
field. We envision HLS 2025 as a venue for the critical re-examination
of our collective theoretical stances, potentially leading to the
cross-pollination of ideas among Hispanic linguistics scholars from
different methodological clines. Reviewing, scrutinizing, and
ultimately re-envisioning our methods with fresh perspectives on our
work and the subject of study is essential to advancing our field. HLS
meetings have traditionally offered an important platform for
discussions about advances in linguistics based on data drawn from the
Spanish-speaking world and neighboring communities (e.g., Catalan,
Euskera, Guaraní, Portuguese, Quechua), and we aim to honor this
tradition.
At HLS 2025, we plan to have the following presentation formats: oral
presentation, poster presentation, project launch presentation,
colloquia.
1. Oral Presentations
Formal oral presentations are single- or co-authored research
contributions in any field of Hispanic linguistics; these are
20-minutes oral presentations followed by a 10-minute
question-and-answer period.
2. Poster Presentations
Poster presentations are single- or co-authored research contributions
in any field in Hispanic linguistics; this format offers a platform
for scholars to share their work, gather feedback, and engage in
intellectual discussions with a dynamic audience.
3. Project Launch
Project launch presentations are brief presentations. They are
10-minutes oral presentations followed by 5 minutes of discussion.
This opportunity encourages researchers from all ranks to discuss
their research plans and receive constructive and actionable feedback
and advice from the Hispanic linguistics scholarly community. Early
career scholars and graduate students are particularly encouraged to
submit.
4. Colloquia
A colloquium consists of a sequence of presentations sharing a
research topic, theme, or perspective. One-hour colloquia allow for
extended discussion on a particular topic in Hispanic linguistics,
achieved through a sequence of individual oral presentations linked to
the colloquium theme and to each other and followed by a brief
discussion. Although the number of presenters, the length of each
presentation, the format or structure of the session, and the
inclusion of a discussant are left up to the discretion of the
colloquium organizer, they typically consist of three individual
papers that are closely connected to the same topic. They typically
conclude with a summary by the colloquium organizer and a brief
discussion.
Abstract Submission Guidelines
Submissions are anonymous; please, do not include authors’ names in
the document. Submissions (oral, poster, project launch) include a
500-word abstract, not to exceed a page, with an optional second page
for references and/or visuals. The word count does not include the
second, optional page and neither does it include the title of the
submission. Abstracts must be in English. Please, include up to five
keywords, separated by a comma, to facilitate anonymous review.
Submissions must be in PDF format. Authors may submit up to two
abstracts, one single-authored and one co-authored or two co-authored.
By default, submissions will be considered for both oral and poster
presentations. Please, indicate which presentation format you are
submitting for if you are interested in only one format. Submissions
for project launch presentations must explicitly indicate this in the
abstract. Abstracts must be submitted via the abstract-submission
system. The submission deadline is May 31, 2025.
Submissions for competitive colloquia need to be sent via e-mail to
hls-2025 at arizona.edu. Submissions must consist of an abstract (500
words) discussing the topic of the colloquium as well as its intended
format. The abstract must explicitly discuss how the colloquium topic
relates to the conference theme. Colloquium abstracts must be followed
by an abstract of each of the individual submissions to be included in
the colloquium (250 words each). For competitive colloquia, their
organizers are responsible for submitting the proposal on behalf of
the colloquium participants, and they serve as the liaison between
participants in the colloquium and the conference organizers. They are
also responsible for all communication among the presenters,
discussant, and organizers. These submissions are not anonymous;
please identify the colloquium organizer and the individual
presenters. Submissions must be in PDF format, in a single document,
attached to the body of the e-mail. The submission deadline for
competitive colloquia is April 30, 2025.
Please note that, if you want to be considered for the HLS 2025 Young
Scholar Travel Grant, you will need to submit a short statement of
need and impact. Submit your abstract via the regular
abstract-submission system and follow up on your submission by sending
your statement of need and impact via e-mail to: hls-2025 at arizona.edu.
The submission deadline for grant applications is May 31, 2025.
Submission deadline for competitive colloquia: April 30, 2025
Submission deadline for individual abstracts (oral, poster, project
launch): May 31, 2025
