Meeting Description: 

In the context of the project ''Near-Synonymy, Semantic Equivalence and
Syntactic Variation'' funded by the Labex Empirical Foundations of
Linguistics, we invite submissions for presentations at a one-day workshop
(September 9, 2016) devoted to the theme of competition and optimization in
natural language, with a particular focus on syntactic, semantic and pragmatic
(including social) phenomena.

Invited Speakers: 

Eric McCready (Aoyama Gakuin University)
Roland Mühlenbernd (Universität Tübingen)
Henriëtte de Swart (Universiteit Utrecht)

The workshop will be held in the Laboratoire de Linguistique Formelle on the
campus of the Université Paris Diderot, in the 13th arrondissement of Paris.

The languages of the workshop are English and French.

Organizers: 

Heather Burnett (LLF-CNRS-Université Paris Diderot)
Berit Gehrke (LLF-CNRS-Université Parus Diderot)
Tatiana Nikitina (LLCAN-CNRS-INALCO)

The MOI workshop is a satellite event of the New Ideas in Semantics and
Modelling conference (http://nism2016.sciencesconf.org/).

This work is part of the program ''Investissements d’Avenir'' overseen by the
French National Research Agency, ANR-10-LABX-0083 (Labex EFL). The
Near-synonymy, Semantic Equivalence and Syntactic Variation project forms part
of Strand 2 of the Labex EFL: Experimental Grammar in a Crosslinguistic
Perspective.
