The Italian Dialect Meeting aims at bringing together Italian dialectologists from all linguistic subdisciplines working on any aspect of Italian dialectology. Following the tradition established by the Cambridge Italian Dialect Syntax Meeting and the Italian Dialects in Diachrony, we encourage discussion between dialectologists with different views on dialects in the hope of creating an extended platform for the study of dialects which goes beyond the local centre and particular approach. We welcome papers on phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and sociolinguistics with a focus on one or more Italian dialects. Papers on non-Romance varieties spoken on the Italian territory are also welcome. Our keynote speakers will be: Birgit Alber (University of Verona) Silvio Cruschina (University of Manchester) Franco Fanciullo (University of Pisa) Carla Marcato (University of Udine) Mair Parry (University of Bristol) Diego Pescarini (University of Padua) Tullio Telmon (University of Turin) A call for papers will be posted in due time.
