<p class=MsoNormal><b>Meeting description<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The workshop is part of the EuroBABEL project on Referential
Hierarchies in Morphosyntax. It aims at bringing together language(-family)
specialists and typologists. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Papers should focus on the effects of referential factors
– such as animacy, information structure, definiteness, anaphoricity
(pronoun vs. noun), person, and number – on the expression of
three-participant events in one or more languages.<o:p></o:p></p>
