<p class=MsoNormal><b>Meeting description<o:p></o:p></b></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>The workshop aims at bringing together language(-family) specialists
and typologists working on the effects of referential hierarchies on the
expression of three-participant constructions, within and across languages.
Relevant referential factors may include animacy, information structure,
definiteness, anaphoricity (pronoun vs. noun), person, number, and others. The
effects of these factors may target word order, agreement marking, direction
marking, case/adpositional marking, and may involve various types of splits and
alternations.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Keynote speakers are Dr. Andrej Malchukov (Max Planck
Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig) and Professor Beth Levin
(Stanford University). The workshop is part of the EuroBABEL project on
Referential Hierarchies in Morphosyntax.<o:p></o:p></p>
