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 must be anonymous.

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),
affiliation, contact information and the title of the abstract in the body of
the email.
