Ninth International Phonology Meeting "Structure and Melody" First announcement and call for papers 1-3 November 2002, Vienna The Ninth International Phonology Meeting will be held from 1-3 November 2002 in Vienna, Austria. Like the previous meeting in 1996, it will have a general theme. The choice of the theme "Structure and Melody" reflects the current concern of many phonologists about the relationship between prosody and syllable / foot / word structure on the one hand and the melodic content of segmental skeletal positions within those structures. Topics Under the general theme of "Structure and Melody" there will be 3 topics: 1. Syllable structure and melody 2. Prosody and melody 3. Acoustic, cognitive and computational issues The invited speakers are (alphabetically): Monik Charette, Grzegorz Dogil, Larry Hyman Nancy Ritter, Grazyna Rowicka, P�ter Szigetv�ri Papers There will be 6 main papers by invited speakers (45 min. presentation and 15 min. discussion) and up to 30 section papers (20 min. presentation and 10 min. discussion), for which we invite the submission of abstracts. All papers will be plenary. Abstracts Abstracts will be reviewed anonymously. Please submit one non-anonymous max. one-page camera-ready original of your abstract for a 20-minute paper to the snailmail or email address given at the end of this announcement, and indicate which topic you are submitting for.
