We invite you to submit an abstract to the fourth meeting of the Slavic Linguistics Society, to be held on the campus of The University of Zadar, in beautiful Zadar, Croatia, 3rd-6th September 2009.

Keynote speakers:

The purpose of SLS is to create a community of students and scholars interested in Slavic linguistics, that is, the systematic and scholarly study of the Slavic languages. The Society aspires to be as open and inclusive as possible; no school, framework, approach, or theory is presupposed, nor is there any restriction in terms of geography, academic affiliation or status.

Papers dealing with any aspect of Slavic linguistics and within any framework are appropriate, as well as those that represent cross-disciplinary approaches (sociolinguistics, computational linguistics, language acquisition, etc.). The only restriction is that all papers should address an issue pertaining to Slavic linguistics. All talks will be for 20 minutes, plus 10 minutes for discussion. We encourage everyone to participate and ask you to share this announcement with as many colleagues and students as possible.

Abstracts were due by 5th of June 2009.

All abstracts were refereed and participants were notified by mid June 2009.
