The University of Texas at Austin, April 9-10, 2020

We invite abstract submissions to LSRL50 for consideration as 20-minute talks (plus 10 minutes for discussion) and/or poster presentations on any aspect of Romance Linguistics.

To commemorate a half century of research on Romance linguistics, we welcome contributions in all aspects of Romance languages and dialects and especially encourage abstract submissions that confront classic problems in Romance linguists with new data or new methodologies.

All abstracts should be anonymous, no more than two pages in length (including examples and references), in 12-point font, 8.5×11-inch page setup (= US Letter), with 1-inch margins. Submissions are limited to one individual and one joint abstract per author, or two joint abstracts per author, and papers must be in English.

Submissions Open: October 1, 2019

Deadline for abstract submission: December 1, 2019

Proposals for Special Sessions: We also welcome abstract submissions for Special Sessions on any topic of interest to meeting attendees but we especially welcome proposals that provide a forum in which scholars of different orientations communicate with one another or that showcase research that uses different types of data (corpus, lab, etc.) to address a similar problem. Any special sessions will run concurrently with regular sessions. If you are interested in proposing a Special Session, please contact the Organizers for detailed information on options and instructions.
