PhD Studentship: West Nilotic Morphosyntax
The topic is the comparative morphosyntax of the West Nilotic languages, and forms part of the European Research Council-funded project ‘NILOMORPH: The evolution of suprasegmental morphology in West Nilotic’, which sets out to explain how linguistic evolution took a highly unexpected turn in the West Nilotic languages of East Africa.
Some languages within this group have evolved systems of non-concatenative morphology in which multiple grammatical categories are expressed simultaneously within a single syllable, through specifications of tone, phonation, vowel length and vowel quality. Comparative evidence suggests that this evolved from a more conventional system of affixal morphology. The aim of NILOMORPH is to investigate this evolution, employing a combination of field linguistics, acoustic analysis, experimental linguistics, computational simulation, typology, and the historical-comparative method. The project is based jointly at the University of Surrey, the University of Edinburgh and the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), with partners in North America (University of Oregon, Wayne State University, University of New Mexico, and University of Toronto).
The PhD position is focused on the comparative morphosyntax of the West Nilotic languages. The reconstruction of West Nilotic morphological evolution naturally presupposes an understanding of its grammatical system and its evolution, which includes a number of typologically striking and poorly understood categories such as ‘Austronesian-type’ voice systems in a number of languages. The PhD candidate will have the opportunity to collaborate with members of the project team who are engaged in descriptive work in West Nilotic languages (primarily Dinka, Nuer, Reel, Shilluk, Thuri, and Burun varieties), as well as conduct independent fieldwork.
Supervisors: Professor Matthew Baerman and Dr Oliver Bond
