Final Call for Papers:

Extended Deadline: 20 March 2011

The conference will be open for papers on all topics in the field of Morphology. However, one day will be devoted to the specific topic:

Morphology and the Architecture of the Grammar 

Morphology deals with the correlation between the form and the meaning of words. Hence, it plays a central role in theories on the architecture of grammars of natural languages, as it specifies the relationship between form and meaning of expressions in a particular language. Some basic questions are: 

-What are proper criteria for the demarcation of morphological versus syntactic objects? 
-Where, in grammar, are morphological objects to be accounted for? 
-To what extent is the construction of words subject to different principles and constraints than those of the construction of phrases? 
-In which ways do morphology, phonology and syntax interact? 
-Should inflection and word formation be dealt with in different parts of grammar, or are they impossible to separate? 
-What do morphological phenomena tell us about the nature of linguistic generalizations (rules, schemas, constructions, etc.), and their place in the description of the competence of language users?
