Call for Papers
The conference will provide a forum for the exchange of ideas in the four main
disciplines of language, linguistics, literature and translation. As the
articulated nature of the (sub)title, Centring the Marginal, Stretching the
Boundaries, suggests, the theme will highlight two processes in a redefinition
of our disciplines:
- research and debate in areas which are traditionally seen as being at the
margins of our concern yet which can be seen as having a potentially
significant, central role;
- research and debate which extends the limits of our concern into new areas,
possibly through collaboration with related disciplines.

Language, Culture and Communication
Language and the Media

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non
Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be
offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers
only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny.
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
