XIIIth INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF PHONETIC SCIENCES
(ICPhS 95)
Stockholm, Sweden, August 13-19, 1995

FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT - please respond (see end of mail) - please
post/distribute

Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to invite you to the XIIIth International Congress of
Phonetic
Sciences, ICPhS 95. It will be held in Stockholm, Sweden, August 13-19, 1995.
The congress is a joint venture of our two departments, but with
organisational
and scientific support from the entire Swedish phonetics community. As usual,
the
congress will invite contributions from all aspects of the phonetic sciences in
the
broadest sense.
With four years between congresses in this series, we look forward to
intense
discussion and exchange of new results in phonetics. We believe that Stockholm,
in
August 1995, will be a good setting for this.
The weather in Stockholm in August is often very comfortable, with long
daylight and daily high temperatures around 20: C. The Stockholm Water Festival
will
most likely take place immediately preceding ICPhS 95.
We are also pleased to report that the recent economic changes have made
prices
of accommodation and food in Sweden very reasonable for most visitors.
Our two departments, the Swedish phonetics community and the Congrex
congress bureau will do our best to make your stay both enjoyable and
scientifically
rewarding.

Welcome to Stockholm in 1995!
