QUANTITATIVE APPROACHES TO VERSIFICATION
Prague | 24-26 June 2019
The Quantitative Approaches to Versification conference will meet June 24–26, 2019 in Prague, Czech Republic. This conference, which is dedicated to Květa Sgallová, one of the most prominent Czech experts in versification, continues the tradition of the annual international Slavyansky Stikh conference, which dates back to 1960s.

We welcome proposals for papers dealing with quantitative analysis (ranging from simple descriptive statistics to advanced machine learning) of all aspects of versification. Papers of 20 minutes may bear on material from any time and in any language, but must be delivered in English.

Abstracts (500–1600 characters) should be submitted no later than 31st October 4th November 2018 via the web form. The abstract should clearly describe the research question, data, and method employed. Applicants will be notified about acceptance via e-mail in mid-November.
Should you require earlier review of your proposal in order to support an application for travel funding, please contact Robert Kolár (kolar@ucl.cas.cz).
Proceedings will be published on the day of the conference. To facilitate the production of proceedings, authors of accepted papers must agree to submit their papers (proof-readed by a native speaker of English) no later than 28th February 2019. Each author will receive a printed copy of the proceedings, which will also be published online under an open-access CC-BY-ND license.
