Theme:
Formal and Functional Linguistics: Approaches, History, and Results
Heinrich-Heine-University, Düsseldorf
15 July - 3 August 2002
Director: Dieter Stein
Associate Director: Ellen Prince
The event will offer basic and advanced specialized credit courses on the model of the Summer Schools of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Sprachwissenschaft and the Linguistic Institutes of the LSA. There will be a range of special events on the state of the art in formal and functional lines of inquiry that have dominated general linguistics, as well as on the relevance of these two approaches to specialized disciplines like language acquisition, language change, and language contact.
An optional two-week program in German language and culture, focusing on the Rhinelands (the Düsseldorf and Cologne area) will be offered for foreign participants.
Student Fellowships
Student fellowships will be available on a competitive basis to LSA members who are undergraduate or graduate students and who have not completed their professional training. To be eligible for fellowship support, students must be LSA members and are expected to attend and participate in the full three weeks of activities.
Funding for fellowships is extremely limited. Awards are likely to be confined to tuition and some travel money only.
The
application form is in this bulletin and is also available on the web at: http://www.lsadc.org.
Completed application forms and requisite letters of recommendation must be
at the LSA Secretariat no later than 11 February 2002.
