The annual conference of the British Association for Slavonic and East European Studies (BASEES) will take place at Fitzwilliam College, University of Cambridge (UK), between 29-31 March 2008.
Abstracts are invited for individual 20-minute papers or for entire panels (2-3 papers) in any area of Slavonic philology, linguistics, language teaching, and translation studies. The working languages of the conference are English and Russian.
At this year's conference we had around thirty papers in formal linguistics, historical linguistics, applied linguistics, semiotics, language teaching, and translation studies presented by academics and graduate students from institutions in the UK and abroad. The annual convention as a whole brings together scholars from a wide range of disciplines including literary studies, linguistics, cultural studies, history, economics, politics, sociology, film and media studies as they pertain to Central and Eastern Europe and to the former Soviet Union.
Abstracts for languages and linguistics papers or panels should be sent on a form available at www.basees.org.uk by 1 October 2007.
