This panel explores how ‘wisdom’ is conceptualized, articulated, and spoken about across diverse linguistic and cultural settings. A particularly rich point of departure is the contemporary resurgence of ‘wisdom talk’ in the context of planetary crises: ecological degradation, technological acceleration, democratic decline, and anxieties surrounding the future of humanity. In such conditions, appeals to wisdom often index both anxiety and aspiration. They may foreground indigenous knowledges

We invite the submission of abstracts for the Computational Linguistics poster session of the 49th annual meeting of the German Linguistic Society (DGfS), hosted by the University of Jena. We invite submissions from all areas of computational linguistics, ranging from models of language across all linguistic areas to corpus lingusitics, multimodal approaches and studies on LLM capability assessment. We especially encourage students and junior researchers to participate. The poster session is

Today’s democracies are facing increasing internal and external threats. Alongside political polarization and widespread mis‑/disinformation, recent OECD data (2024) indicates a declining trust in national governments and public institutions, with many citizens feeling unable to influence public decisions. Simultaneously, participatory practices – both grassroots and institutionally organized – are expanding. This tension between decreased democratic trust and attempts to increase participation

The conference on "The Syntax of Nominal Copular Clauses: Cross-linguistic description and formal theories'" (SyNCC) is part of the AHRC/DFG-funded SynCop project (http://syncop.info). It will focus on the syntax and semantics of sentences with a nominal predicate, aiming for a discussion with both breadth and depth. The immediate goal of the conference is to bring together both theoretical insights from in-depth analysis and a broadening of the empirical landscape to include work on un(der)-stu
