Ph.D./M.A. scholarships in an international research project From Emergent Complex Syntax to Discourse Markerhood: The Hebrew Grammar-Body Interface in a Cross-Language Comparison

An Interactional Linguistics project funded by the Israel Science Foundation focusing on the multimodal study of complex syntactic structures in spoken discourse will begin October 1, 2020, headed by Professor Yael Maschler. This fouryear project will take place at the Department of Hebrew, University of Haifa, Israel, in cooperation with colleagues at the University of Helsinki, Finland, the University of Neuchâtel, Switzerland, and Linköping University, Sweden.

• Culling, analyzing and classifying specific complex clausal structures and the actions implemented by them in the Haifa Multimodal Corpus of Spoken Hebrew (Maschler et al. 2020)

• Participating in comparative studies with parallel research teams in Europe working on Swedish, French, and Estonian data


The participating student will enroll in the Department of Hebrew Language at the University of Haifa and write a thesis based on part of this research.

• While there is a preference for Ph.D. candidates, M.A. candidates will also be considered


Requirements:

• Academic background in linguistics, preferably in interactional linguistics and/or discourse and grammar •Native or near-native knowledge of Hebrew
