Call Deadline: 01-Apr-2019 

Meeting Description:

It is commonly assumed in both semantics and syntax that there is a
distinction between inner aspect (lexical or predicational aspect) and outer
aspect (grammatical aspect) (e.g. Smith 1991/97; Cinque 1999; Travis 2010 for
spoken languages; Bross 2018 for sign languages). Inner aspect pertains to the
distinction between telic and atelic predicates at the level of the VP (the
verb and its argument(s)), and the compositional derivation of telicity, going
back to works by Verkuyl (1972) and Krifka (1989). Outer aspect, on the other
hand, is concerned with, e.g., imperfective (IPF) and perfective (PF) verb
forms that are associated with (im)perfective meanings in finite sentences
(see, e.g., Klein 1994). At the same time both levels of aspect interact, with
grammatical aspect commonly taken to operate on the level of inner aspect
(see, e.g., de Swart 1998 for an early treatment of this interaction). The
workshop ''Syntax, Semantics, and Pragmatics of Aspect Across Modalities''
wants to discuss recent advances in the research on inner and outer aspects
and their interaction.

Call for Papers:

We invite abstracts on the semantics, syntax, and pragmatics of aspect in
different languages and especially welcome contributions from sign language
linguistics and gesture research, as well as from psycholinguistics (e.g.,
work on acquisition or on processing). Abstracts should not exceed 2 pages
(A4, using a 12pt font) including references and examples. Anonymized
abstracts should be sent to SSPAM2019 at googlemail.com no later than 1 April
2019. 

The workshop will be part of the 13th International Tbilisi Symposium on
Language, Logic and Computation, which will be held on 16-20 September 2019 at
Batumi, Georgia. The exact workshop dates will be announced soon; but we
expect the workshop to take place on the first two days of the symposium.
