SALT 8 - Call for Papers Semantics and Linguistic Theory Eighth Annual Meeting Massachusetts Institute of Technology May 8-10, 1998 Invited Speakers: Angelika Kratzer Fred Landman Richard Larson Tanya Reinhart SALT 8 welcomes submissions for 30-minute presentations (with 10 additional minutes for discussion) on any topic in the semantic analysis of natural language emphasizing the connection to linguistic theory. Authors should submit 10 copies of abstracts, no more than 2 pages (1000 words) long. Authors' names, address, affiliation, status (faculty/student), phone number and e-mail address, paper title, and list of prior or planned presentations at other conferences should accompany the abstracts on a 3x5 card. Fax or E-mail submissions will not be accepted. - ------------- Guidelines: SALT does not accept papers that by the time of the conference have appeared or have been accepted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal. Preference will be given to presentations not duplicated at other major conferences (including LSA, NELS, WCCFL, etc.). Authors are asked to indicate prior or planned presentations of their papers on the abstract submission card. Any person can submit at most one abstract as sole author and a second abstract as co-author or two abstracts as co-author. Choose a title that clearly indicates the topic of the paper. State the problem or research question raised by prior work, with specific references to relevant prior work. State the main point or argument of the proposed presentation. Give at least one critical example, with explanation of why and how it supports the main point or argument. When examples are in languages other than English, provide word by word glosses. State the relevance of your ideas to past work or to the future development of the field. Describe analyses in as much detail as possible. Avoid merely saying "a solution to this problem will be presented". [adapted from the LSA guidelines for abstract submissions] - ------------- Deadline for submission of abstracts is Tuesday December 2, 1997. The program will be announced in February 1998.
