Dear Sebastian, Paolo et al,.<br>
<br>
The SLE is certainly a good place for such a discussion, but I fear that<br>
the deadline for Naples has already gone by.<br>
<br>
There are yearly SLE meetings, though, and the next one is in Zurich, September 2017.<br>
One of the traditions is a round table, a plenary discussion with several presentations,<br>
and 400+ people in the audience. Apart form that, a one or 1.5 day workshop is <br>
possible as well.<br>
<br>
Deadline for a workshop: 15/1/2017<br>
<br>
<u><b>Contact:</b></u><br>
<br>
Chair of the local organization: Johannes Kabatek [kabatek@rom.uzh.ch]

Onderwerp: [Lingtyp] Edited volume<br>
<br>
Dear list,<br>
it has been suggested to compile a book about the topics raised in the<br>
recent discussion. For a successful book, we have to identify the following:<br>
<br>
- interested audience: OK. The lively discussion on this list proves<br>
that the topic is of interest to many different people<br>
<br>
- publisher: "Conceptual Foundations of Language Science" has been<br>
suggested and the series editors Nick Enfield and Mark Dingemanse have<br>
stated that such a volume would fit the series<br>
<br>
- volume editors: this is less clear. I would suggest that there should<br>
be at least one senior linguist among the editors. Everyone has a high<br>
workload, and in my experience senior researchers find it easier to make<br>
other people respect deadlines. YMMV.<br>
<br>
- authors: it is not clear who among the participants intends to write a<br>
paper<br>
<br>
- topics: the papers should cover different strands of the discussion.<br>
Ideally, papers should cross-reference each other but should not overlap<br>
too much. It is unclear to me how this could be achieved.<br>
<br>
- coherence: a clearly identified research question would help people<br>
structure their argument<br>
<br>
The topic is highly relevant, but it also rather novel. It might be a<br>
good idea to have a workshop at one of the upcoming LSA/SLE/ALT to<br>
arrive at a common ground and maybe descriptive apparatus for<br>
formulating our ideas on the matter.<br>
What do others think?<br>
Best<br>
Sebastian<br>
