Category: colloquium

The 44th GLOW Colloquium will be held fully online, synchronously over three days, April 15–17, 2021, and organized by the GLOW Board.

To offer something unique for the global linguistics community, GLOW 44 will feature a an entirely new flavour of main session talk, to provoke high level discussion and theorizing: targeted collaborative debates. Targeted collaborative debates are joint talks that present contrasting analytical proposals to a particular concrete empirical problem, in any area of linguistics. Traditional research contributions are also sought, to be presented and discussed in synchronous and asynchronous online media, including in a synchronous flash talk session. Please read more about the format of GLOW 44 and its motivation.

Abstracts for both types of contributions are due December 15. See the Call for Papers.

Future GLOW Meetings are projected to be physical:

• Spring 2022 Queen Mary, University of London
• Spring 2023 University of Vienna

GLOW 43 is online, free, and happening now!

The team at Humboldt University Berlin have arranged for all GLOW 43 presentations (main session, posters, and three thematic workshops) to be online and available for discussion from now through April 20th. Presenters are available for online discussions at designated times, and discussions can also take place on the OSF platform.

The 41st GLOW conference (GLOW 41) will take place between 10-14 April 2018 in Budapest, Hungary. It will be organized by the Research Institute for Linguistics of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. The conference will consist of a main colloquium (11-13 April, Wed to Fri) and four thematic workshops (on Tue, 10 April and Sat, 14 April).

The main conference has no specific theme so scholars are invited to submit and present papers within all areas of generative linguistics. Submissions on phonological topics are especially welcome.

The following workshops are planned:

Phonology workshop: Long-distance segmental phenomena (organized by Péter Rebrus)

Syntax workshop: Predication in relation to propositions and properties (organized by Maria Polinsky & Marcel den Dikken)

Semantics workshop: The Grammar and Pragmatics of Interrogatives and Their (Special) Uses (organized by Beáta Gyuris & Hans-Martin Gaertner)

Workshop on Sign Language (organized by Balázs Surányi & Marcel den Dikken)

The calls for papers for the main colloquium and the workshops will be posted early in September.

GLOW 41 will also be complemented by the yearly meeting of the Phonological Theory Agora network with a thematic workshop on ”The necessity of formalization in phonology”.

The 40th GLOW colloquium was hosted by Leiden University on on 14 – 18 March 2017 in Leiden, The Netherlands. More information can be found at the conference website here.
