2020-2021 doctoral seminar: "Semitic linguistics and language contact in the Mediterranean".

This seminar is monthly and takes place on the first Thursday of the month from 4:30 to 7:00 pm.



Since 2014, the "Semitic Linguistics and Language Contact in the Mediterranean" doctoral seminar has brought together Cermom researchers and doctoral students whose object of study is the languages of the ancient and modern Near East. The approach of the participating researchers is multifaceted: theoretical and formal linguistics, descriptive linguistics based on field studies, sociolinguistics, linguistic anthropology, history of grammar. The aim of the seminar is to create a space for exchange that is both flexible and precise, with a dual training and research objective: to circulate knowledge and enrich analyses by bringing together different points of view on a given issue. To achieve its training objective, the seminar generally includes a presentation by a PhD or Master 2 student on his/her research, in addition to a presentation by an established researcher.
The seminar is held monthly.
The seminar is a monthly event lasting two to two and a half hours. It takes place on the first Thursday of the month from 4:30 to 7:00 pm, with special arrangements for certain months. There is no unifying theme. Participating researchers will be able to present their current research.

Our seminar is shared with the Linguistics Master's program, and has been given a code in the new Master's syllabus: ARAA532I.
The seminar is open to all doctoral students.
The seminar is open to any PhD student whose field of study is a Near Eastern language, and to any PhD student in general linguistics. It is also open to M2 students.
