CHAMP Summer School on
The Syntax of Discourse
2nd to 4th July 2025, IIT Delhi
2nd to 4th July 2025, IIT Delhi
The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi will organize an online summer school, 'The Syntax of Discourse', from the 2nd of July to the 4th of July 2025. The three-day-long event will feature lectures by eminent scholars on wide-ranging discourse-related topics.
The 2025 summer school continues the tradition of three CHAMP conferences ('Charting Honorific and Addressee Morphosyntactic Processes') that were held in London, Göttingen and Barcelona in 2023, 2024 and 2025 respectively. CHAMP serves as a platform for scholars to discuss current theoretical work on the interface between syntax and pragmatics and to enquire about the extent to which structure encodes elements of discourse.
Our focus in the 2025 summer school is two-fold. We aim to train students on the current state of research on the syntax of discourse and also encourage them to explore new and unexplored languages for discourse-related expressions. The summer school is open to participants at all stages of their careers.
