Linguistic Field(s): General Linguistics; Pragmatics; Semantics; Syntax 

Call Deadline: 02-Nov-2018 

Meeting Description:

The syntax and semantics of pronominal elements has been at the center of much
theoretical research throughout the history of modern syntactic and semantic
theory (e.g., Chomsky 1981). In recent years, an increasing role has been
played by cross-linguistic comparison (e.g. Cardinaletti & Starke 1999,
Déchaine & Wiltschko 2002, Patel-Grosz & Grosz 2017, Jenks to appear),
highlighting significant yet constrained variation in the behavior of
pronominal and anaphoric elements across languages. Inspired by these
findings, this workshop aims to bring together current research on the syntax
and semantics of pronouns and other anaphoric elements from a cross-linguistic
perspective, with a focus on languages that are understudied, underrepresented
and/or endangered.


Call for Papers:

This workshop aims to bring together researchers working at the forefront of
research on anaphora and pronominal typology with an empirical focus on
languages that are understudied, underrepresented and/or endangered. We invite
submissions, in particular, from the fields of syntax and semantics, but also
from other subfields of generative linguistics (e.g., morphology and
pragmatics) that address the nature of anaphora and pronominal typology in
understudied, underrepresented and/or endangered languages.

Investigations that cut across these areas by targeting the
syntax-semantics-pragmatics interface, as well as other interfaces between the
different fields, will be particularly relevant.

Please submit abstracts via EasyChair using the same link as for the main
colloquium (https://glowlinguistics.org/42/call-for-papers/). The Easychair
link will be made available closer to the submission deadline.
