Subject: Comparative Slavic Morphosyntax
Greetings!
Two new position papers have been posted to the www page for the
Comparative Slavic Morphosyntax www page (URL below): Leonard H. Babby,
"Voice and Diathesis in Slavic"; Steven Franks, "Clitics in Slavic". One
paper remains to be posted; we expect to have it up within the week. To
mark the posting of these new position papers, we enclose below a Second
Call for Papers.
2ND CALL FOR PAPERS
Indiana University invites you to submit abstracts to a workshop (funded by
the U.S. Department of Education) on
COMPARATIVE SLAVIC MORPHOSYNTAX
The workshop will be held at Canyon Inn, in McCormick's Creek State Park,
Spencer, Indiana (near Bloomington) on Friday-Sunday 5-7 June 1998.
Papers are solicited in response to five invited "position papers":
Leonard Babby:
"Voice and Diathesis in Slavic"
Zeljko Boskovic:
"Wh-phrases and wh-movement in Slavic"
Greville Corbett:
"Agreement in Slavic"
Steven Franks:
"Clitics in Slavic"
Gilbert Rappaport:
"Noun Phrases in Slavic" (not yet posted to www page)
These position papers are intended to summarize the variation in data
across the Slavic languages, define the "state of the art" in existing
analysis for each area, communicate innovations and on-going research, and
identify an agenda for future investigation. As such, they are meant to
serve as springboards for discussion, rebuttal, response, and debate. This
call for papers solicits responses in two categories: 10 minute
presentations (+ 5 minute discussion) or 20 minutes (+ 10 minute
discussion). You may respond to one or several position papers, but must
submit an advance abstract for each response; there is no set limit on the
number of responses which may be accepted from any one individual.
The position papers can be downloaded via the internet in
platform-independent .pdf and .ps formats from:
<http://www.indiana.edu/~slavconf/linguistics/index.html>
If you cannot download or use electronic versions of the position papers,
you may request a printed copy of any of the papers from the address below.
However, However, in view of our limited budget and staff resources, we
urge you to utilize the electronic versions if possible (please use Adobe
Acrobat Reader 3.0.x, which may be downloaded free of charge from
<http://www.adobe.com/>).
Proposals for reponses may be submitted to the address below. Abstracts
should be no more than one page, including examples and references. Include
your name and affiliation directly on the abstract, and please attach a
card with your name, address, e-mail, phone, title, and position paper to
which you are responding. Also, please send 4 copies and indicate the
length category for your response. We will also accept submissions via
email to <slavconf at indiana.edu> or fax (to 1-812-855-2107). Paper
submission is preferable, however, as these abstracts will be used as
camera-ready copy in making the abstract book for the workshop.
Deadline for receipt of abstracts: 24 April 1998
A volume of proceedings will be published by Slavica Publishers.
All requests for information, inquiries about position papers, and
abstracts should be sent to:
