I'm a PhD student at Smolensk State University and my major is phonology. In my thesis I'm investigating the factors that influence stress assignment in English derivatives.
I'm eager to attend all classes in phonology, especially those devoted to stress (by Anthi Revithiadou) and Optimality Theory (by Maria Gouskova). I've never had a chance to be at linguistic seminars taught by western scholars and I am sure that (in case I'm allowed to participate) I'll benefit immensely from this unique experience.
It won't be an exaggeration to say that this summerschool is the opportunity I've been waiting for all along. |
