Call Deadline: 29-Apr-2009

Meeting Description:

We are pleased to announce that the PAC Workshop 'Models, variation &
phonological corpora' is due to take place from Thursday 10 to Friday 11
September 2009 in Aix-en-Provence and will be hosted this year by the Université
de Provence and the Laboratoire Parole et Langage (LPL CNRS UMR 6057).

Call for Papers

Our guest speaker will be Michel Viel (Paris 4 Sorbonne) The PAC Project
(http://w3.pac.univ-tlse2.fr/), 'La Phonologie de l'Anglais Contemporain:
usages, variétés et structure: The Phonology of Contemporary English: usage,
varieties and structure' is a project coordinated by Philip Carr and Jacques
Durand. Among other things it aims at: giving a better picture of spoken English
in its unity and diversity (geographical, social and stylistic); testing
phonological and phonetic models from a synchronic and diachronic point of view,
making room for the systematic study of variation, favouring communication
between specialists in speech and in phonological theory, providing data and
analyses which will help improve the teaching of English as a foreign language.

Participants do not have to belong to the PAC project to submit a paper and all
researchers interested in the phonology and phonetics of English are invited to
submit proposals for talks (20 mins + 10 mins discussion). Other things being
equal, priority will however be given to papers specifically devoted to the
theoretical description of oral English making room for variation on the basis
of corpora.

The deadline for sending a title with a short abstract is 29/04/2009. Please
send your proposal to:
gabor.turcsanuniv-provence.fr
sophie.hermentuniv-provence.fr

Notification of acceptance will be sent by late May
