Meeting Description:

The Department of Linguistics at The Ohio State University is pleased to

held on January 14 and 15, 2011, in Columbus, Ohio. This event also  
constitutes the 8th Annual OSU Martin Luther King Day Linguistics  
Symposium.

The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers working on 
evidentiality from descriptive, formal semantic, cross-linguistic and/or 
historical perspectives, with the goal of fostering a cross-disciplinary and
cross-linguistic  discussion of evidentials and evidential systems. The 
workshop will feature several local (OSU) speakers as well as several 
outside invited speakers (see the Call for Papers), and will also consist of 
additional paper and poster presentations solicited through a call for 
papers.
