Meeting Description: 

This workshop is dedicated to the work of Bob Ladd, one of the pioneers of
Laboratory Phonology and the first president of the Association of Laboratory
Phonology. The theme of the workshop reflects Bob's interest in the form and
nature of phonological representations and their relation ''to the physical
manifestations of speech and the cognitive processes that underlie them'' (in
his words). His research on this broad theme has dealt with a number of
topics; though perhaps the best known has been his contribution to
intonational phonology and the relation between abstract phonological
representations of tone and their phonetic manifestation, his research has
also addressed the more general issue of the role of phonetic evidence in
phonology, the problematic nature of systematic phonetics, the treatment of
gradience, and duality of patterning. Contributions to this workshop, from
researchers who have collaborated with Bob during his career and/or been
strongly influenced by his research, will focus on these themes.

The workshop is organised by current and former colleagues and students of
Bob's: Amalia Arvaniti, University of Kent; Bettina Braun, University of
Konstanz; Sasha Calhoun, Victoria University of Wellington; James Kirby,
University of Edinburgh; Ivan Yuen, Macquarie University.
 

***Please note that the workshop dates have changed***

The workshop will be held in the afternoon of Wednesday, 23 June, 2021. It is
a satellite of Phonetics and Phonology in Europe (PaPE), Barcelona. 

The workshop will consist of two types of contributions. Six invited
participants who have collaborated with or been students of Bob will give
scientific talks on the theme of form and representations in phonology. We are
pleased to confirm contributions from:

Mary Beckman, Ohio State University
Janet Fletcher, University of Melbourne
Martine Grice, University of Cologne
Carlos Gussenhoven, National Chiao Tung University / Radboud University
Nijmegen
Haruo Kubozono, National Institute for Japanese Languages and Linguistics
Jim Scobbie, Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh

In addition, members of the community who have worked with or been influenced
by Bob have also been invited to contribute short video or text messages,
which will be shown in a slide show and presented to Bob. These will address
Bob’s scientific, organisational or personal contributions to the field of
laboratory phonology.
