Meeting Description:

The Hopkins Workshop on Language (HOWL) has been created as a venue for
research into human language that is both theoretically grounded and
informed by the range of methodologies of the cognitive sciences. Each
year, a topic is chosen, and scholars present and energetically debate
their ideas from the perspectives of theoretical linguistics, acquisition,
processing, breakdown, computation, and neural representation. In past
years, HOWL has given rise to lively discussion, and speakers from all
disciplines have found the discussion to be very rewarding.

HOWL 4 will take on the topic of Grammar in Cognition.
The first day of the workshop will be devoted to the interface between
grammar and conceptual structure, specifically with  respect to
relationships between syntax/semantics and conceptual notions of number and
quantity.  The second day will focus on how being in the cognitive system
shapes phonology. As in the past, oral presentations at HOWL 4 will be by
invitation. In addition, we are also
inviting submissions for a poster session. 

We invite submissions on the place of grammar in cognition, particularly
ones which fit with the topics of the two days of HOWL 4, from any of the
perspectives of cognitive science.

Anonymous abstracts may not exceed two pages in length (not including
data, figures and references). All abstracts must be submitted
electronically to howl at cogsci.jhu.edu.

Please use 'Abstract' as the Subject header and include, below the
abstract, the following information, which should constitute the body of
the message:

1. Name(s) of author(s)

2. Affiliation(s)

3. E-mail address(es)

4. Postal address(es)

5. Title.

The anonymous abstract may then be included either in the body of the
message in ASCII format, or else as a PDF attachment. Presenters will be
notified of acceptance of their abstract around September 21, 2007.
