Linguistic Field(s): Linguistic Theories; Semantics; Syntax 

Meeting Description: 

Since the turn of the century there has been a heightened activity within a
series of type-theoretical formalisms bearing a family resemblance to one
another. All of these adopt the pheno/tecto distinction or undirectedness in one
way or another and claim various descriptive and formal advantages. The workshop
intends to bring together researchers in this now very active field.

Organized as part of the European Summer School on Logic, Language and
Information, ESSLLI 2007, www.cs.tcd.ie/esslli2007, 6 - 17 August, 2007 in Dublin
