The Purdue Linguistics, Literature, and Second Language Studies Conference
March 1-3, 2019
Purdue University

The Purdue Linguistics Association, the School of Languages and Cultures, and the Second Languages Studies Program at Purdue University are going to have the Fourth Purdue Linguistics, Literature, and Second Language Studies Conference (PLLS) in March, 2019 at Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana. This interdisciplinary conference seeks presentations of original research from graduate students, early career scholars, and established scholars in the theme of “Inform, Perform, Transform.” This theme was chosen because it highlights the informative, performative, and transformative nature of language: language, enabled by its inherent structure and creative and generative power, informs us of cultures, peoples, desires, emotions, material conditions, and power structures, performs identities and subjectivities, and transforms the status quo, be it imbalance, marginalization, tension, or conflict. Other topics in the areas of linguistics, literature, and second language studies will also be considered.

Deadline for Proposal Submission: December 1, 2018
