Call for Papers Abstracts are invited for 30-minute talks in English or French on any topic related to the linguistic and non linguistic aspects of events; they should contain between 300 and 400 words. They will be reviewed anonymously. The deadline for submission has been extended: it is now July, 31st, 2010.
