For a decade or so, the biennial International Symposium on Chinese 
Languages and Linguistics (IsCLL) has become a major academic event for 
the small but lively linguistic community of Taiwan. The upcoming eighth 
symposium (IsCLL VIII), scheduled for November 8-10, 2002 and jointedly 
hosted by the Institute of Linguistics of Academia Sinica and the 
Linguistic Society of Taiwan, will bear PHONOLOGY as its general theme. 
The highlights of IsCLL8 will be a special session specifically devoted 
to TONE and plenary talks by three distinguished researchers in the 
focal area:

 Prof. Larry Hyman (UC Berkeley)
 Prof. Ian Maddieson (UC Berkeley)
 Prof. Yen-Hwei Lin (Michigan State University)

The organizing committee of IsCLL VIII cordially invites abstracts for 
theoretical and descriptive studies on the languages of China, with 
preference given to all areas of phonology as well as interface (e.g. 
phonetic, morpho-syntactic) work addressing specific phonological 
issues. Abstracts (in Chinese or English) should be anonymous, and may 
be up to five typewritten pages long (including additional charts, data, 
and references), with a separate page indicating title of paper, subject 
area, author's name and affiliation, and mailing/email addresses. The 
deadline for submission is April 1, 2002. Each abstract will be reviewed 
by at least two scholars commissioned by the organizing committee. 
Accepted authors (to be announced by May 31, 2002) should send us their 
fully completed papers of no longer than twenty typed camera-ready pages 
by September 9, 2002 for website posting and inclusion in the symposium 
proceedings. Upon acceptance of their abstracts, authors are committed 
to present original papers written exclusively for IsCLL VIII. All final 
presenters will receive waiver of conference fee, plus traveling 
stipends and complimentary on-campus accommodation for the duration of 
the symposium.
