Linguistic Field(s): Morphology 

Call Deadline: 15-Feb-2017 

Meeting Description:

In the wake of the word-based models, specifically in connection with the word
and paradigm approach introduced by Blevins (2013, 2016), the paradigmatic
approach is gaining a growing support in the field of Word Formation (WF),
essentially in derivation but also compounding.  More and more work refers to
this approach including Van Marle 1985, Stump 1991, Bochner 1993, Bauer 1997,
Pounder 2000, Booij 1997, Roché & Plénat 2015,  Štekauer 2014, Strnadová 2015,
among others.

Paradigmatic WF is an alternative to the generative models in morphology and
to binary and oriented rules. Paradigmatic models involve derivational
relations that are not limited to base-derivative pairs and that may be
oriented both ways or have an unspecified direction (Jackendoff 1975).
Morphological paradigms are usually considered as interconnected by more or
less complex networks of words, reflecting the patterns of the many relations
that each word has with the others. These networks cluster into derivational
families on one dimension and pile up and form analogies on the other. 

Paradigm-based approaches to WF are characterized by several distinctive
properties:

- The need for a strong meaning/form correlation
- The nature of the paradigmatic regularities, which (re)defines canonicity in
WF
- The importance taken by derivational families and the fundamental question
of their identity and their limits (unlike lexemes, families are open sets).

On the orthogonal dimension, we also have to figure out how morphological
families are grouped into paradigms according to the properties shared by
their matching relations. The paradigmatic conception of WF leads us to define
structures composed of partial and overlapping networks.

This workshop will provide an opportunity to discuss recent proposals and
advances on paradigms in WF, and in particular with respect to derivation. It
constitutes a contribution to the debate and discussion on this issue, in
particular the previous discussion during the two workshops organized during
the 49th SLE conference (“Paradigms in Word-Formation: New perspectives on
data description and modeling” and “Similarities and differences between
inflectional and derivational paradigms: individual languages and beyond”). 

The goal of ParadigMo is to identify and discuss a series of fundamental
issues that underlie the principles of paradigm-based approaches to WF. These
include the following:

- What does paradigmatic WF look like?
- What objects do we need to describe WF paradigms?
- How are semantic and formal dimensions connected within WF paradigms?
- What questions/issues/problems arise from the shift to paradigmatic WF?

Invited Speakers:

Olivier Bonami (LLF, U. Paris-Diderot & CNRS)
Gregory Stump (U. Kentucky)


2nd Call for Papers:

Abstracts are invited on any topic relevant to the notion of paradigms in WF,
including, but not limited to, the following questions:

- What are the definitions of the notion of paradigms in WF?
- How are WF paradigms structured?
- What are the identity and limits of derivational families?
- Are there separate semantic and formal paradigms?

Submission:

Abstracts should be: in 12-points font; at most 4 pages long, including
tables, figures, references; in PDF format; fully anonymous. They must be
submitted at: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=paradigmo2017

Important Dates:

Submission deadline: 15 February 2017
Notification of acceptance: 10 April 2017
Workshop: 19 & 20 June 2017

Venue:

Université Toulouse Jean-Jaurès
