Participants of Ghilm 8

The 8th International Conference for Maltese Lingusitics  took place between the 18th and 21st of September at the University of Bremen, Germany. Over 30 researchers attended this conference entitled “The Next Century of Maltese Linguistics”. The conference of the International Association for Maltese Linguistics (GĦILM) is held every 2 years and is attended by both Maltese and foreign researchers working on Maltese linguistics. 

The conference consisted of 27 talks, including 2 plenary talks by Prof. Andrei Avram (University of Bucharest) and Prof. Dominique Caubet (INALCO, Paris). Presentations covered a range of topics including  theoretical linguistics, sociolinguistics, stylistics and computational linguistics. An edited volume of linguistic papers will be published in line with previous publications compiled following GĦILM conferences.

The two branches of the Malta Centre in Bremen and Malta were responsible for the organisation and coordination of this event and provided financial support to set up and run the conference. The organising committee consisted of Prof. Thomas Stolz and Maike Vorholt (University of Bremen) and Prof. Ray Fabri, Dr Michael Spagnol, Raffaello Bezzina and Michela Vella (University of Malta). The conference was a great success and both branches of the Malta Centre look forward to organising future events promoting Maltese linguistics on an international level.

The Launch of the local branch of the Maltese Language Centre

On the 9th of February, the official launch of the local branch of the Malta Centre was held at the Valletta Campus (UM). This event was organised in light of the renewal of the agreement between the University of Malta and the University of Bremen which was signed in June 2022 and through which, a local branch of this Centre was established. Prof. Thomas Stolz and Maike Vorholt, who are responsible for managing the Malta Centre at the University of Bremen, Germany, were invited for this event.

In the first hour, Prof. Fabri, Dr. Spagnol and Prof. Stolz gave short speeches about the establishment, history and objectives of this Centre. Additionally, the administrators of the two branches, Maike Vorholt, Michela Vella and Raffaello Bezzina presented a number of future projects and ideas. In the second hour, Prof. Thomas Stolz gave a linguistic talk entitled Special Toponymic Grammar in Maltese and beyond.

In view of the renewal of the agreement, and as an initiative to strengthen the collaboration between the two branches, Maike Vorholt, the administrator of the branch in Bremen, spent a week in Malta. During this week, she and the research officers of the local branch drew up a work plan for the coming months and had several meetings about future projects, including the conference of the International Association of Maltese Linguistics (GĦILM ) which will take place in Bremen, coming September.
