FEAST 2023

FEAST (Formal and Experimental Advances in Sign Language Theory) is the regular forum to discuss formal approaches to sign language grammar (in particular in the generative tradition), experimental approaches to sign languages, and their interaction. FEAST is held as a conference series every one or two years. The next installment will take place at the University of Bergen, Norway, on June 27th–29th, 2023. It is organized by the Department for Linguistic, Literary and Aesthetic Studies at the University of Bergen (UiB), and co-organized by the Western Norway University of Applied Sciences (HVL) and The Centre for Sign Linguistics and Deaf Studies of Chinese University of Hong Kong.

In 2023, FEAST will host a special session on theoretical and experimental approaches to nonmanuals, which will be a part of the Nonmanual project.
