Romance Linguistics, Textual Studies and the Canon
The XXVIIIth International Congress of Romance Linguistics and Philology will take place
in Rome at the Università “La Sapienza” and at the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Through its
sessions, conferences, round tables and other scholarly activities, the Congress will attempt to
represent the interconnections between philology and textual criticism as they have been established
in research in the past ten years also through contacts with other disciplines (literary history,
sociology, hermeneutics, palaeography, communication theory). The title of the Congress Romance
Linguistics, Textual Studies and the Canon, whereas 'canon' is interpreted as a paradigm of
methodological models within a shared common idea of knowledge, aims at stimulating – through
the contribution of different specializations – a discussion on a central issue for the humanities in
our globalized world: what is the relationship between language and culture, what is shared and
what is characteristic of any one culture? Such issues in disciplines like Romance Philology and
Textual Studies, born in Europe and inextricably linked to the city of Rome, embrace today, at the
beginning of the XXIst c. all continents manners which appear often original and not traditional.

Call for Papers
To facilitate perspective speakers the conference website will make available for each section a
list of possible key-words.
Proposals should be sent to the Scientific Committee through the form available on the
conference website (‹www.CILFR2016Roma.it›). Please include:
– a two-pages summary (no footnotes)
– a final paragraph explaining (i) how will the proposed paper integrate in the chosen section
(ii) its innovative aspects
– a select bibliography (max. one page)
It is also possible to to submit proposals for posters, as has been the case in Nancy (2013). Poster
may be publish subsequently, in the same way as papers.
All proposals (both papers and posters) will be examined by the presidents of the relevant
sections. All Romance languages are official languages of the conference.
The Programme Committee warmly invites to give any contribution a Romance perspective,
including using Romance languages as a perspective in which a phenomenon relating to a particualr
language is more easily comprehensible.
To encourage discussion the final texts of the papers accepted by the Scientific Committee may
be sent by the 15th May 2016 to the organizers, in which case they will be available on-line from the
end of June 2016 through a password given to the Conference participants.
