Meeting Description:

The aim of the conference is to explore similarities and differences
among languages of the 'stative-active' (or 'split intransitive',
'agent-patient', 'agentive', etc.) marking type. In particular we
welcome papers that address issues of argument structure and voice (or
other valency) related phenomena in such languages, areas where
stative-active languages are likely to show common behaviour distinct
from languages without stative-active morphology. Other phenomena that
are of the interest for the typology of stative-active languages are
not excluded, however. Our primary focus is on classic cases of
stative-active languages where an agentive S is encoded, through case
marking, verbal agreement, or both, in the same way as A and
non-agentive S in the same way as P. We do not, however, exclude other
cases, as long as the agentive vs. non-agentive distinction is a
pervasive feature of the grammar. Papers can be language-specific,
reporting on field research on individual stative-active languages, or
might directly address typological issues from a broader perspective.

The time allotted for presentation and discussion is 20 + 10
minutes. English is the preferred language at the conference.

Johanna Nichols (U. California, Berleley)
