Abstracts for papers dealing with any aspect of literature, language, and linguistics (including foreign language) should be from 100 to 200 words. Papers must be kept to a twenty-minute (20-minute) reading time, not to exceed ten (10) pages. Papers should be written and read in English.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.
