<div>Workshop 1. PERSPECTIVES ON COMPLEX PREDICATES</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Invited Workshop participants:</div>
<div>Peter Sells (organizer); others TBA<x-tab>
</x-tab></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Complex Predicates-- for example certain causative, resultative,
serial verb, and light verb constructions-- are predicates composed of
more than one grammatical element (either morphemes or words), each of
which contributes part of the syntactic and semantic information more
typically associated with a single head. Complex Predicates are
found in many (perhaps all) languages, and often show quite similar
combinations of argument structure despite radically different overt
expressions across languages. They raise several analytical
questions: How are the composite argument structures formed and
represented (e.g. exactly what is combined, and how does that
combination happen)? What is the range of permissible argument
structure combinations (i.e. the semantic and syntactic typology of
complex predicates)? What is the set of permissible structural
representations for a given type (e.g. causatives)?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Different theoretical approaches such as HPSG, LFG, and GB/MP,
offer different perspectives and formal tools for the exploration of
these questions. This workshop will air diverse views on this
topic, with the goal of achieving greater insight into the questions
above and other related issues. We invite abstracts for 30
minute presentations that address any empirical or theoretical issues
relevant to the analysis of Complex Predicates, from any theoretical
perspective.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Workshop 2. PERSPECTIVES ON INVERSION</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Invited Workshop participants:</div>
<div>Ivan Sag & Robert Levine (co-organizers); Howard Lasnik;
Robert Borsley</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Inversion -- the patterned positional alternation of lexical
elements-- has been of central importance in the development of most
frameworks for syntactic analysis. Inversion phenomena are diverse,
including interrogative-related initial position in Germanic, Romance
and other language families (e.g. English subject-auxiliary
inversion), second position phenomena, extraction-related `stylistic'
inversion in Romance, VSO languages, etc. A range of approaches
to inversion have been offered: transformational frameworks
treat inversion phenomena in terms of operations such as Head
Movement; HPSG and other constraint-based, lexicalist (CBL) frameworks
allow alternate structures (inverted and non-inverted) to be directly
generated; and some LFG treatments take a middle ground, positing the
Head-Movement-like notion of 'extended head', whereby a word can lie
outside the phrase it heads, but in a constraint-based setting.
The purpose of this session is to bring together researchers working
in transformational and CBL frameworks to arrive at a deeper
understanding of the theoretical and empirical issues at stake in the
different approaches to inversion that have been explored.
Contributions to this session may address any empirical or theoretical
issues relevant to the analysis of inversion phenomena.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>We invite abstracts for 30 minute presentations addressing any
aspect of inversion, using any theoretical framework.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>LSK Workshop abstracts should be a single page, with an
additional page for data/references if needed. Abstracts should
be submitted electronically to lsk2002@khu.ac.kr . The abstract should
either be pasted into the email or should be an attachment as an ASCII
text file, Word, PS or PDF file. Please use the subject header ``LSK
2002 Workshop Abstract: Your last name and first name initial''.
Include all the author information (the title of the paper, workshop
title, the name(s) and affiliation(s) of the author(s), and the
address, phone number and e-mail address of the primary author) in the
body of the e-mail.</div>
