Web Site: http://www.katalanistik.de/colloqui.htm Linguistic Field(s): Sociolinguistics Subject Language(s): Catalan-valencian-balear (CLN) Language Family(ies): Romance Call Deadline: 30-Sep-2005 Meeting Description: This workshop is held as part of the 20th German Conference on Catalan Studies / 20è Col.loqui Germano-Català / 20. Deutscher Katalanistentag, organized by the Department of Romance Languages of Eberhard-Karls University of Tübingen in cooperation with the German Association for Catalan Studies / Deutscher Katalanistenverband e.V. and the Institut Ramon Llull Barcelona. FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS The workshop is devoted to the question how language planning (on both status and corpus level), language policy in schools and education, mass media (traditional and electronic) and other means of spreading standardized language varieties affect diatopic variation in the case of regional and minority languages for which the process of standardization is still relatively recent and where the diffusion of this (comparatively) new standard variety takes place under the conditions of diglossic competition with another (national or international) language that in most cases already has an established and unchallenged standard variety. The workshop will focus on the question whether dialect convergence and diasystematic dynamism follows the same or different pathways in the case of minority languages as it does in ''big'' (inter-) national languages, and how this process affects identitarian and ideological attitudes among the linguistic communities nvolved. The main focus will be on Catalan, but studies on other regional languages in Europe (and elsewhere) including a comparative perspective on Catalan are also welcome. Papers may be read in German, Catalan, other Romance languages, and English. Please send an abstract no longer than one A4 page, including your name, academic affiliation, and address, preferably as ASCII, MS WORD, HTML or PDF file attached to an e-mail, to the conference convenor at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Abstract deadline: September 30, 2005. The conference will be held in Tübingen, a historic town in Southwestern-Germany with a long academic tradition and which has played an important role in the development of Catalan studies in Germany.
