From Utterances to Speech Acts

By Mikhail Kissine

"Kissine offers a new theory of speech acts which is philosophically sophisticated and builds on work in cognitive science, formal semantics, and linguistic typology. This highly readable, brilliant essay is a major contribution to the field."

--François Recanati, Institut Jean-Nicod

Optimality and Syntax Acquisition



I am interested in doing some research in the area of optimality
theory and the acquisition of syntax (first language). Up until now I
have not been able to find anything on OT and syntax acquisition, so I
was wondering if anyone else did (or knows of any work in progress). In
particular, I want to look at the theoretical implications of OT syntax
for first language acquisition, but anything about OT and syntx
acquisition would do. Please email me at: ke.thrift@let.uva.nl

Thanks very much!
Erica Thrift
