The Summer School of Linguistics 2025

Host Institution: Charles University in Prague
Website: https://ssol.ff.cuni.cz/

Dates: 02-Aug-2025 - 09-Aug-2025
Location: České Budějovice, South Bohemia, Czech Republic

Minimum Education Level: No minimum
Special Qualifications: Anybody interested in language and its use is
welcome at the Summer School of Linguistics. There is no need for
prior knowledge of any of the topics. The capacity of the school is
limited (ca. 100 participants).

Focus: The aim of the Summer School of Linguistics is to give an
opportunity to students and young researchers who are interested in
language and its use to get acquainted with the range of current
achievements in linguistic research. The lectures usually cover
various research fields such as the first and second language
acquisition, psycholinguistics, typology and language contact, corpus
linguistics, sociolinguistics, phonetics, etc. The Summer School of
Linguistics aims also to have an important social impact. In other
words, it should be not only a place where one can get useful
information of the current state of linguistics but also a place where
people interested in language and its use meet, discuss various issues
and possibly start to collaborate on various future projects.
Description:
The school takes place every August in a small city in the Czech
Republic (2007–2015 it took place in Dačice, 2016–2017 in Litomyšl,
2018–2019 in Kroměříž, and since 2022 in České Budějovice). Lectures
and workshops are mostly designed as an extensive introduction to a
given topic so there is no need for prior knowledge of any of the
topics. All lectures and workshops are in English (since 2014).
The speakers of this year are:
Louise Connell (Maynooth University)
Martin Haspelmath (Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology,
Leipzig)
James Kirby (Ludwig-Maximilian-University, Munich)
Lars Meyer (Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain
Sciences, Leipzig)
Susanne Michaelis (Leipzig University)
Karolina Muszyńska (University of Warsaw)
Alexandra Lorson (University of Groningen)
Tuition: 1500 CZK (60 EUR)
Tuition Explanation: There are two types of registration: with or
without accommodation. We offer nice and cheap accommodation in the
dormitory of the University of South Bohemia in the same campus just
about 500 m from the main venue. There are two types of rooms: a twin
bedroom with a shared bathroom (475 CZK person/night; i.e. 4825 CZK
for the whole school including the participation fee) and a single
bedroom sharing a bathroom and fridge with two other single bedrooms
(565 CZK person/night; i.e. 5455 CZK for the whole school including
the participation fee). We can offer accommodation only to those who
would come for the whole time of the school.
Participants who do not want to use this accommodation or would like
to come only for a few days are also welcome, but they need to find
their own accommodation. Also, we ask them to pay a participation fee
of 1500 CZK (approximately 60 EUR) to complete the registration.
