Meeting Description:

The Seoul International Conference on Generative Grammar (SICOGG) is an annual conference bringing together generative linguistics from East Asia and around the world to present and discuss current research related to generative syntax and its interfaces. Each year, SICOGG invites a keynote speaker to deliver a series of lectures on a special topic related to the speaker’s current research. SICOGG 25 will take place at Dongguk University in Seoul, Korea, from August 14 - 16, 2023. The conference will be hosted by the Korean Generative Grammar Circle.

The general session of SICOGG 25 features a series of invited lectures by Professor Rajesh Bhatt (University of Massachusetts). The theme of SICOGG25 is The Syntax and Semantics of Polarity and Questions. We especially invite papers on the topic The Syntax and Semantics of Polarity and Questions. However, equal consideration will be given to papers from all areas of generative grammar, which may include syntactic theory, the syntax-pragmatics interface, the syntax-semantics interface, the syntax-morphology interface, the syntax-phonology interface, syntactic acquisition, and any other topic related to generative grammar. Applicants for oral/poster presentations must submit their abstracts by May 22nd, 2023.
