SCHOOL OF LANGUAGES AND CULTURES<br>
THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD, U.K.<br>
<br>
The School of Languages and Cultures is seeking to
appoint a Research Associate to take part in a
three-year project. It is funded by the UK’s Arts and
Humanities Research Council and will start on 1 June
2020.<br>
<br>
The project, entitled Feast and Famine: Confronting
Overabundance and Defectivity in Language, looks at
non-canonical inflectional morphology in
morphologically complex languages of central and
eastern Europe. It includes eight institutions across
four countries: the UK, the Czech Republic, Croatia
and Estonia, and will be led by <b>Professor Neil
Bermel (University of Sheffield)</b> in
collaboration with Professor Dunstan Brown (University
of York).<br>
<br>
It represents an excellent opportunity for a suitably
trained linguist or psychologist to investigate a
project of her/his own design, based on data from a
language of this region, while also working as part of
a collegial larger team seeking to shed light on these
phenomena. We’re looking to appoint someone who has:<br>
<ul>
<li> A PhD in linguistics, psycholinguistics,
psychology of language, cognitive science or a
related relevant field (or have equivalent
experience);</li>
<li>A research interest in one or more languages
from the central and east European area (Slavonic,
Baltic or Finno-Ugric);</li>
<li>A proven track record in experimental research
on languages.</li>
</ul>
You will have the opportunity to define and carry out
your own investigation into one of the project’s
experimental research questions. These concern how
speakers produce material that falls into overabundant
and defective paradigmatic slots and how they react to
such material.</div>
