CSSP welcomes papers combining empirical inquiry and formal explicitness. The 
conference aims at favouring comparisons between different theoretical frameworks. 

The sixth Syntax and Semantics Conference in Paris (CSSP 05) will take place at
Paris 7 University, on September 29-30 and October 1, 2005.

CSSP conferences combine a general session and a thematic session.

GENERAL SESSION
submissions for the general session may address any topic on
        - syntax
        - semantics
        - the syntax-semantics interface.

THEMATIC SESSION
the thematic session will focus on
        The syntax and semantics of non-declarative sentences:
        questions, exclamatives, and imperatives.

CSSP 05 invites submissions for 20-minute presentations (plus ten-minute
discussions). Abstracts should be at most 2 pages in length (including examples
and references) written in French or English. The same person may submit at most
one abstract as a sole author and one as a co-author.

Abstracts should be sent by e-mail (plain ASCII, rtf, ps or pdf) to:
        info at cssp.cnrs.fr
Please write the (first) author's name plus the word 'abstract' in the subject
line of your message (e.g., 'Dupont abstract'), and include author name(s),

The 12th International Conference on Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar will
take place in Lisbon on 22-24 August 2005, hosted by University of Lisbon,
Faculty of Sciences, Department of Informatics. The conference will include a
workshop on 'Binding Theory and Invariants in Anaphoric Relations' on August 22. 

MAIN CONFERENCE
23-24 August 2004

Abstracts are solicited for 30 minute presentations (followed by 10 minutes of
discussion) which address linguistic, foundational, or computational issues
relating to the framework of Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar.

INVITED SPEAKERS
To be announced

WORKSHOP
''Binding Theory and Invariants in Anaphoric Relations'' 
22 August 2005

Anaphoric invariants and binding theory have been one of the central topics in
formal linguistics and there have been interesting recent developments in
semantic approaches to binding theory, in the research from psycholinguistics
and neuro-imaging, and in the study of the connections between binding and
discourse. The aim of the workshop is to stimulate the exchange of contributions
on this subject between HPSG and the results arising from other methodological
or theoretical persuasions.

A separate call containing a detailed description of the workshop can be found at:
http://bindingwksp.di.fc.ul.pt

The format of submission and the deadlines for the workshop are identical to
that of the main conference.

SUBMISSION DETAILS

For both the main conference and the workshop, we invite E-MAIL submissions of
abstracts for presentations which should consist of two parts:

1. a separate information page in plain text format, containing 
   - author name(s) 
   - affiliation(s) 
   - e-mail and postal address(es) 
   - title of paper 

2. an extended abstract of not more than 5 (five) pages, including all figures
and references. Abstracts should be in PDF format.

All abstracts should be sent to Manfred Sailer
(manfred.sailer at phil.uni-goettingen.de).

Abstracts for the main conference should mention 'HPSG-05' and abstracts for the
workshop should mention 'binding-05' in the subject line. All abstracts will be
reviewed anonymously by at least two reviewers. Authors are asked to avoid
self-references in the abstracts.

IMPORTANT DATES

Abstract submission deadline: February 15, 2005 
Notification of acceptance: April 15, 2005
Workshop and Conference: August 22-24, 2005
