The aim of the ICLCE conference is to encourage the cross-fertilisation of ideas between different frameworks and research traditions, all of which may address any aspect of the linguistics of English. Previous ICLCE conferences were held in Edinburgh (2005), Toulouse (2007) and London (2009) along the same lines. We aim for the Osnabrueck conference to build on the success of those events. 2nd Call for Papers The attention devoted to the linguistics of the English language has resulted in a broad body of work in diverse research traditions.
