let.uu.nl>CALL FOR PAPERS Topic & focus Utrecht University, December 2 Workshop incorporated in Going Romance, Nov. 30-Dec. 2 Utrecht Institute of Linguistics OTS (UiL OTS), Holland Institute of Generative Linguistics (HIL) Invited speakers: Knud Lambrecht, Mar�a Luisa Zubizarreta (to be confirmed) The workshop will explore topic and focus in Romance Languages. Topic and focus have effects on word order, on prosody and on the interpretation of sentences, and as such constitute an ideal empirical domain for the study of the interaction between syntax, phonology and semantics/ pragmatics. We welcome papers from different theoretical perspectives. The relation between syntactic, prosodic and semantic/ pragmatic effects of topic and focus will be of special interest. Abstracts are invited for thirty minutes talks (with an additional ten minutes for discussion). Abstracts should be anonymous, and should be no longer than two pages including references and examples, with margins of at least 1-inch, letter size 11/12. Submissions are limited to a maximum of one individual and one joint abstract per author.
