First Call for Papers
The Departments of Slavic Studies at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat in
Munich and the Universitat Regensburg are pleased to announce the
Second International ''Perspectives on Slavistics'' Conference
The conference will take place in Regensburg, Germany, September 21-24,
2006.
The goals of the conference are to encourage the study of Slavic languages
and literatures and to establish connections among scholars working in these
areas. There will be three parallel sections, two focusing on literature and
cultural studies, the third one reserved for linguistics. The linguistics
section will have the honour to host the 6th Annual Conference of the Slavic
Cognitive Linguistics Association.
Confirmed keynote speakers include: Greville Corbett (Universit of Surrey,
GB), Catriona Kelly (New College, Oxford, GB), Renata von Maydell (Bonn,
Germany), Georg Witte (Freie Universitat Berlin, Germany).
Submissions from any scholar working on Slavic languages or literatures are
welcomed, including those in Slavic departments, as well as in specialized
linguistics or literature departments. We particularly want to encourage
young scholars to participate in this conference. Papers will be considered
on topics relating to the diachronic or synchronic study of Slavic languages
and literatures from any theoretical perspective. Each paper will be allowed
thirty minutes (including 10 minutes for discussion). The deadline for
submissions is April 15th 2006 (abstract specifications see below).
Presentations should be in English in order to open the conference up to
researchers working on non-Slavic languages and literatures. Beamers and
overhead projectors will be provided.
The participation fee will be 50 euros (25 for graduate students and passive
participants), to be paid in advance. Detailed information on payment
options & deadlines and hotel accommodation will be provided by May 2006.
The participation fee covers the abstract booklet, other conference
materials, refreshments and snacks. A limited number of participants from
economically disadvantaged countries may be allowed free participation upon
application. Please include a motivated application for free participation
when sending in your abstract. In assigning waivers priority will be given
to graduate students and non-tenured scholars.
Please, do not hesitate to contact us for further details or questions
(pos2slav.fak12.uni-muenchen.de).
Abstract specifications:
The abstracts should not exceed 500 words (plus an additional page for
tables, graphs and references, if necessary). Please use Times New Roman,
