Final Call For Papers Extended deadline Submissions are invited for 30 minute-papers (plus discussion) on all domains of linguistic theory. Abstracts are invited from all areas (phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics) of formal linguistics (e.g., generative grammar or related frameworks). Topics may include syntax-semantics interface, syntax- morphology interface and others. Abstracts on language acquisition, psycholinguistics and neurolinguistics are also particularly welcome in a perspective that relates them to theories of grammar. We strongly encourage contributions exploring formal approaches to language diversity and typological works (including but not limited to sign languages, creoles, under-represented languages and comparative studies). Plenary speakers: - Melissa Bowerman (Max Plank Inst.) - Hans Kamp (U. Stuttgart) - Richard Kayne (NYU) Instructions for Abstract Submission Presentations may be in English or in French. The language used in the abstract will also be the language of the presentation. Abstracts should be anonymous and must not exceed 2 pages (A4) (including data and references) with a 2,54 cm (1 inch) margin on all four sides using Times New Roman 12 pt. Abstracts must be submitted online using the link below. We use EasyChair as our system of abstract collection. We will accept electronic submissions only (.pdf files).
