You are cordially invited to submit a proposal to read a paper at
AN INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON
LANGUAGE AND IDENTITY
Sponsored by
THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF GEOLINGUISTICS
and
BARUCH COLLEGE OF THE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK
at
BARUCH COLLEGE
THE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK
October 4-5, 2002
Papers on any aspect of the topic should take 15 minutes to read aloud but
may be expanded to as many as 15 pages (single-spaced, with one-line spaces
between paragraphs) for publication in the proceedings. Those will appear
early in 2003. Participants are asked to submit final articles to the
secretary by December 15, 2002.
Names are so important to personal identity that even those seeking aliases
tend to retain some part of the real name, if only initials. Language
underlies ethnic unity and fuels political aspirations, whether speakers
have a country or their own or (as with gypsies or the Kurds) not. The
conference will address all the cultural, economic, political and other
ramifications of the connections between language and personal, group, and
national identities; the impact of artificial and dominant international
languages; the have/have-nots of the modern technological world with its
special languages; bilingualism and language competition/legislation;
language as affecting the personality and the tribe; and more. The
conference is, like other ASG conferences since 1985, under the direction
of Prof. Leonard R. N. Ashley, president of ASG, and the secretary again is
Prof. Wayne H. Finke. Prof. Finke may be contacted now with early proposals
(to 400 words) for papers, questions about registration fees, $45.00 (as
usual covering also the gala banquet and a copy of the proceedings), etc.
Enjoy New York City in the fall and participate with colleagues from the US
and abroad in an important scholarly meeting!
Deadline: July 15th 2002
Professor Wayne H. Finke, Modern Languages, B6-280, Baruch College, 17
Lexington Avenue, New York, NY 10010-5585. E-mail:
