---------- From: amela &lt;uclyaca(a)ucl.ac.uk&gt; Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2001 11:47:13 +0000 Subject: Nis summer school Please circulate this announcement The 8th Central European Summer School in Generative Linguistics (CESSGL) Nis 01 23 July - 03 August http://egg.auf.net/ Announcing the 8th free summerschool: as every year: we are organising a summerschool in Generative Grammar in Central/Eastern Europe, which has both excellent researchers as teachers and is entirely free (no enrollement fees). This summer, the accomodation (hostel) is even free for everybody. Additionally, there are grants available to cover the travel costs of Eastern European students. To register, simply fill in the form at: http://egg.auf.net/register.html The deadline for registration is the 15th May. The school will be held in Nis (Yugoslavia), during two weeks (23 July to 3 August), and is separated into two parallel teaching tracks: * one introduction track for people with little background in (generative) linguistics * one medium/advanced track for people who already know the basics and want to get into research topics. The school offers two weeks of intensive intellectual work in syntax, semantics and phonology (this summer has a strong morpho-phonological component), with the following teacher lineup: <Haike Jacobs, Jonathan Kaye, Tobias Scheer, Olga Tomic, Michal Starke. Klaus Abels, Arhonto Terzi, Ellie Boyadzeva, Luisa Marti, Orin Percus> Finally, an important aspect of this school is that it tries hard to keep a balance between intellectual life and fun, providing not only hard-working classes, but also hard-partying parties. People who register will be automatically subscribed to a discussion list about the school, where all further information will be sent. This allows you to keep up with the latest development in the region (e.g. security issues), with the potential changes in the programme, and to ask any question you might have. To learn more about the school, visit < http://egg.auf.net/ > or contact the organisers: Tobias.Scheer(a)unice.fr and Michal.Starke(a)lettres.unige.ch. Hope to see you soon!
