Call for Papers:

Quienes deseen participar como ponentes deberán enviar una propuesta de comunicación o de mesa redonda acompañada de sus datos personales antes del 31 de diciembre de 2014, vía Easy Chair,  en la sección Envío de resumen de la página del congreso: http://ciajihle2015.com

Una vez elegidas las propuestas, se notificará la resolución a los seleccionados para que procedan a rellenar y enviar la ficha de inscripción, junto con el pago de la cuota.

We invite all researchers to submit papers that advance our theoretical understanding of the notion of categories in grammar.

Questions to be discussed in this workshop include, but are not restricted to, the following:

- What criteria can we use to define categories in grammar? E.g., to what extent do semantic criteria play a role in (morpho)syntax?
- Are all levels of grammar alike? E.g., is morphology different from suprasegmental phonology with regard to categoricity?
- What is the relationship between categories and scales/hierarchies?
- How can gradualness be modeled?
- If we use non-discrete categories, how do we prevent arbitrariness of classification? How do grammatical rules operate on non-discrete lower-level entities?
 What is the role of analogy in language structure? E.g., what is the basis of similarities between elements of a category?
- Do written and spoken language share all the same categories? E.g., how do we integrate the syntax of spoken language into our modeling?
- How are categories acquired in first (and second) language acquisition?
- What is the psychological reality of grammatical categories in the minds of speakers? Are there neural substrates?
- How do new categories emerge diachronically? How are they lost?
- Are some categories universal?

Methodologically oriented papers focusing on particular case studies (on any grammatical phenomenon in any language) are also welcome.

Please send an anonymous abstract of no more than 500 words, excluding references, to histling at zedat.fu-berlin.de.

There will be 45-minute slots, including discussion time.

Deadline for submission of abstracts: 1 March 2015
Notification of acceptance: End of March 2015
