2nd Call for Papers:
Submission deadline for the Syntax of the World's Languages conference
extended until March 6, 2025.
Meeting Description:
The tenth Syntax of the World's Languages conference will take place
in Potsdam, Germany, between September 8-12th, 2025, at the University
of Potsdam, Campus Am Neuen Palais. In the same spirit as previous
conferences in this series (SWL I, Leipzig 2004; SWL II, Lancaster
2006; SWL III, Berlin 2008; SWL IV, Lyon 2010; SWL V, Dubrovnik 2012;
SWL VI, Pavia 2014; SWL VII, Mexico City 2016; SWL VIII, Paris 2018;
SWL IX, Lima 2024), SWL X will provide a forum for linguists working
on the syntax of less widely studied languages from a variety of
perspectives.
The main purpose of the SWL conference series is to enlarge our
knowledge and understanding of syntactic diversity. Contributions are
expected to be based on first-hand data of individual languages or to
adopt a broadly comparative perspective. The discussion of theoretical
issues is appreciated to the extent that it helps elucidate the data
and is understandable without prior knowledge of the relevant theory.
All theoretical frameworks are equally welcome. Papers that adopt a
diachronic or comparative perspective are also welcome, as are papers
dealing with morphological or semantic issues, as long as syntactic
issues also play a role.
We welcome submissions for 20 minute talks, which will be followed by
10 minutes of discussion. Along with general session, the conference
will host two workshops: "Exploring Tail-Head Linkage:
Cross-Linguistic, Methodological, and Theoretical Perspectives" and
"‘Coverb’ as a cross-linguistically valid category". Anonymous
abstracts in .pdf format of no more than 1 page (plus possibly an
additional page for examples and references) should be submitted
electronically via the EasyAbs website
(https://easyabs.linguistlist.org/conference/SWL10/). Each individual
may participate in up to two abstracts, with a maximum of one
single-authored submission. Abstracts must be written in English, with
fully glossed examples conforming to the Leipzig glossing rules. If
you submit to one of the workshops, please indicate the title of the
workshop in the comments section. The deadline for all abstract
submissions is March 6, 2025.
