Meeting Description:

The aim of the Summer School is both to provide solid methodological principles and to practise up-to-date analytic procedures and working technologies. It focuses on questions of epistemology, of reliability and validity of methods, on practical and technical tasks of data provision, processing, analysis, storage and retrieval as well as on psychological, social and ethical questions of treatment of informants and speech communities. Its major aim is to enable participants to execute a project by themselves in selecting the methods appropriate to their topic and applying them correctly to the data.

The level of the seminars addresses PhD students of linguistics and neighbouring disciplines. Participants of other academic levels will be admitted to the extent possible.


The lecturers are internationally renowned professors of linguistics with different specialties, coming from five European countries and the USA.

Lecturers and participants will be hosted together in Campobasso. The language of the Summer School will be English.

The Summer School comprises a total of 16 courses, 8 per week. A course should be attended by up to 20 students. Thus, the summer school can take up to 160 students.

The list of courses is the following:

Epistemology of linguistics
