16th edition of FieldLing, jointly organized by the Villejuif
research labs LLACAN, SeDyL, and LACITO, will take place on September 2-6, 2024, at the INALCO, Paris.

Registration (via https://fieldling.sciencesconf.org/) will close on
June 7th (midnight).

FieldLing is an introduction to linguistic fieldwork. It aims
primarily at Master and doctoral students in General Linguistics, but
may also be interesting to students in anthropology and other social
sciences planning to do fieldwork. Fieldling is included in the
studies program of INALCO and Paris 3.

As in previous years, the programme of 2024 will include training
sessions in general linguistics (e.g. morphology, syntactic typology),
fieldwork preparation (e.g. questionnaires, recording), fieldwork
itself (practice sessions with native speakers of different
languages), and data structuring (e.g. how to write a dictionary or a
grammar). Please refer to our official website for additional
information: https://fieldling.sciencesconf.org/. The website will be
updated regularly, so please follow our latest news on it.

The languages of the summer school are English and French. At least
basic knowledge in both languages is required to be able to follow the
entire program.

The summer school caters to (junior and senior) researchers from various scientific disciplines such as e.g. linguistics, translation and interpreting studies, psycholinguistics and language acquisition research, computational linguistics, sociolinguistics and pragmatics, linguistic ethnography etc.

The Summer School "Methods in Language Sciences" offers 10 multi-day modules/courses on various topics, covering both quantitative and qualitative methods.

Minimum Education Level: MA

Tuition
300.0 EURO

Registration until 30-Jun-2024

Linguistic data from fieldwork to R In Salos (Lithuania) from 22 to 26 July 2024

Linguists from different theoretical frameworks strive to ground and test their hypotheses using empirical data from natural languages. This raises the need for sound methodological foundations underlying every step of the research process. Academia Grammaticorum Salensis Vigesima Prima adopts a practical approach and aspires to encompass the data processing pipeline from raw data collected in the fieldwork setting to quantitative results. The summer school is designed to equip participants, primarily PhD students, with the essential tools for conducting data-driven research, focusing on critical phases that are seldom integrated into a single cohesive workflow: fieldwork, data collection (various types and formats), data processing and annotation, and statistical analysis.

The curriculum of the summer school emulates the journey of linguistic data from field to R (the programming language and statistics software often used by linguists), and is structured to guide participants systematically through the initial practical stages of the research process:

1. Linguistic Fieldwork. Lecturer: dr. Maria Khachaturyan, University of Helsinki
2. Data annotation. Lecturer: dr. Alena Witzlack-Makarevich, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem
3. Quantitative methods. Lecturer: dr. Steven Moran, Universit¨¦ de Neuch?tel

Participants of the linguistic fieldwork course will have the possibility to get some hands-on experience with data collection, which will also be made use of in the subsequent courses. The summer school places significant emphasis on the coherence between the three courses, achieved through resurfacing topics, the same exemplary case studies and data sets, facilitated by the collaborative efforts of the course lecturers.

Every day at the summer school will end with a group tutoring session. Here, participants will have a chance to raise questions and engage in discussions on the most challenging parts of the courses, guided by an experienced colleague.

Another distinctive feature of the summer school is its integration with the Salos Linguistics Conference which will be held on the last day of the Summer School. Participants will have the opportunity to submit a poster for the dedicated poster session held within the conference. They are also welcome to submit an abstract for the Academia Grammaticorum Salensis conference and will be considered alongside other applicants for a talk, or can attend the conference as attendees without a presentation.

Minimum Education Level: BA / MA

Tuition
250.0 EURO

Paraphrasing what has been said for other disciplines, there are
plenty of important studies on languages in the Mediterranean, but
there are very few which are actually about Mediterranean languages.
The LLM School aims to fill the need to use an empirical approach to
examine the product of thousands of years of language contact in this
unique geo-anthropic context and to analyse these results from a
'holistic' but anti-essentialist perspective which does not adhere to
any preconstituted theory.

The school¡¯s main aim is to promote research into the languages of the
Mediterranean and the contact-induced phenomena which, in the course
of very long-lasting traditions, arose and continue to arise in many
cases. Studies are carried out from both a synchronic and diachronic
perspective and this edition focuses on the Latin-Romance tradition.

The linguistics courses offer a comprehensive overview of studies on
the languages of the Mediterranean. Various theoretical approaches
will be proposed to deal with the problems of language contact,
especially in the historical and diachronic dimension. Indeed, partly
because the spread of writing in the Mediterranean region dates back
to extremely ancient times, the region offers an extremely rich and
extensive linguistic tradition, which is both long-lasting and
genetically differentiated. Therefore, the Mediterranean is a
privileged observatory for historical-diachronic studies of relatively
long periods. On this occasion, the focus will be placed on the Latin
Romance linguistic tradition.

Two broad thematic lines will be developed in this edition. The first
is dedicated to the analysis of linguistic varieties from a structural
and functional point of view; the second line is dedicated to the
analysis of socio- and pragma-linguistic dynamics in a historical
perspective. Specific attention will be dedicated to the genesis of
Romance languages, in the specific context of so-called Mediterranean
Romania, and to the progressive definition of the 'normed' varieties
in their relationship with writing during the various phases of the
Middle Ages.
