Meeting Description:

(Non-)Complementation
Dongguk University
August 6, 2019

Since the earliest days of generative syntax, complementation has been the
central subject of intense debate. Generative works on complementation have
followed two primary strands of research. One is to examine the nature of the
selectional requirements imposed on embedding predicates and their
complements. The other is to delve into diverse empirical phenomena in the
domain of clausal embedding. Along with this issue, non-complementation has
also received a great deal of attention in the literature. One of the widely
discussed topics concerning non-complementation is the Internally Headed
Relative Clause (IHRC) constructions, which differ in form as well as meaning
from the Externally Headed Relative Clause (EHRC) construction.

Some instances of specific topics on (non-)complementation include the
following:

Are all the clausal complements embedded as an argument by their matrix
selector? (Moulton 2009)
Does clausal complementation involve modal or reportative operators? (Bhatt
1999, Faller 2007) 
Are embedded clauses combined with their matrix predicates through
conjunction? (Pietroski 2005). 
When do root phenomena occur in subordinate clauses? (Hooper and Thompson
1973, Haegeman 2014)
What pragmatic/semantic conditions license an IHRC and how can we describe
them in formal terms? (Kuroda 1976, Fuji 1998)
Is the IHRC construction parallel to other subordinate constructions? (Kim
2018)
 
The workshop aims to provide an opportunity to discuss any issues concerning
complementation and to explore new instantiations of and restrictions on 
(non-)complementation. 

Invited Speaker:
Keir Moulton (University of Toronto)


Call for Papers:

We  invite oral presentations relating to theoretical, experimental, and
computational perspectives on the syntax and semantics of
(non-)complementation. Each presentation will be 30 minutes, followed by a
15-minute discussion period. Relevant issues include, but are not limited to,
the followings:

Selectional restrictions on embedding predicates and embedded complements.
Interaction between interpretation of embedding predicates and type of their
complements.
Complementation versus non-complementation 
Similarities and differences between declarative and interrogative clausal
embedding.
(Im)possibility of embedding imperatives.
Partial availability of articulated projections of embedded CPs.
Similarities and differences between IHRC and EHRC
