13th EGG Summer SchoolOlomouc/ Czech Republic24 July - 4 Augustmore info at http://egg.auf.net

Registration: 10-20 April

The Eastern Generative Grammar summerschool, sometimes known as the GLEE,will be held in the historic town of Olomouc (Moravia) in 2006. The eggfocuses on generative grammar. Teachers are both senior established figuresin the field and young promising researchers at the forefront of today'sresearch (they are all coming to teach for free (and for fun)).

Olomouc 06 will be a thematic EGG on the interface of phonology withmorphology and syntax. The goal is to have syntacticians and phonologiststalk to each other (something that is not obvious at all these days) aboutthe strange no-man's land that lies between them: where is morphologystanding? what exactly is PF doing? what can it do? what is it unable todo? How exactly does it do it? And many more questions of that kind. All inall, our focus is the general architecture of the grammar.

Registration (online) will only be open from April 10th to April 20th, seeegg.auf.net for details, also for the programme and course descriptions,which are almost complete:
