Meeting Description:
Since its first edition in 1990, DiGS has established itself as the leading
venue for the formal investigation of syntactic change in the generative
framework. More information about the history (and near future) of this
conference series can be found at http://walkden.space/digs/ . There will be
no parallel sessions, a now traditional format for DiGS, with the aim of
fostering a collaborative atmosphere.
For the very first time, DiGS will be hosted by the Faculty of Linguistics,
Philology and Phonetics in Oxford. The conference will feature a half-day
workshop entitled ‘Investigating diachronic syntax with less-documented and
unwritten languages: methods and theory’, which will take place on June 23rd.
The objectives of this workshop will be to discuss how to approach languages
that do not boast a long or rich literary tradition and apply contemporary
theoretical tools to study their syntactic evolution. The workshop’s keynote
speaker will be Dr Jenneke Van der Wal, specialist in African languages and
linguistics. For the workshop, we especially welcome proposals featuring
underrepresented languages in the diachronic generative syntax tradition.
Call for Papers:
We invite abstract submissions for:
Oral presentations (30 minutes + 10 minutes for questions)
Workshop presentations (30 minutes + 10 minutes for questions)
Poster Presentations
The language of the conference is English, but submissions can focus on any
language. Presentations should contribute to any aspect of diachronic
generative syntax (e.g., syntactic change, or methodologies directly informing
the field).
Please indicate in your submission whether you want your presentation to be
considered for an oral and/or poster session, and whether it is for the
workshop or for the general session.
Abstracts should be anonymous and no longer than two A4 pages, including
references and examples, in 12-point Times New Roman, with margins of at least
2,5 cm / 1 inch. Submissions for the conference are limited to a maximum of
one individual and one joint abstract per author, independently from
submissions for the workshop.
