Proposals for book chapters are solicited for a
new volume titled (tentatively), Contemporary
Approaches to Cuban Spanish Dialectology.
Georgetown University Press has expressed
interest in publishing the volume. The volume
will examine the most contemporary research on
Cuban Spanish linguistics today. Contributions
are invited on the following four areas of
research: phonological and phonetic issues,
syntactic and morphosyntactic issues/variation,
sociolinguistic approaches/variation, language
contact and change (e.g., Cuban Spanish in
contact with English in the U.S, Afro-Hispanic
influences). The chapter could either be
empirical or theoretical in nature, and it
should be written in English.
Submission details:
Abstracts should be 400-450 words in length,
and be specific in regards to contribution to
current theory and research. Please also submit
a short CV in addition to your abstract.
Submissions should be sent in Word format to
the editor.
The abstracts will be put through peer review
by GUP as well as the complete volume. Authors
whose abstracts are selected will be invited to
submit their work to the volume.

Abstract submission deadline: October 20,
2014
