Meeting Description:
Ellipsis is a central phenomenon at the interface between syntax, semantics,
phonology and discourse. It has been, and continues to be, the focus of
numerous publications (van Craenenbroeck & Temmerman 2018). Despite a huge
amount of theoretical work (from, e.g., Hankamer & Sag 1976 to current work by
van Craenenbroek 2010, Ginzburg 2012) and a long tradition in psycholinguistic
experimentation (from Murphy 1985 and Tannnenhaus & Carlson 1990 to current
work by Kim & Runner 2017, Poppels & Kehler 2019), major questions remain
open, most centrally the question of whether it is necessary to hypothesize
the existence of unpronounced syntactic structure at the ellipsis site.
The purpose of this conference is to bring together researchers who have been
working on elliptical phenomena with special emphasis on methodologies aiming
to improve the empirical foundations of the discussion, specifically
psycholinguistic experimentation (acceptability and eye-tracking experiments,
in particular) and corpus investigations.
Contributions will be welcome concerning (i) the specific experimental
methodologies being used in psycholinguistics, and how they can be improved to
give more reliable and interpretable results; (ii) the way corpus data can be
brought to bear on theoretical questions; and (iii) how corpus data can be
used to improve the results of psycholinguistic experiments, specifically by
increasing the naturalness of the materials by providing new hypotheses.
This two-day conference will lead to publication and continues the theme
initiated by preceding ECBAE conferences during the 2017 and 2019 LSA
Linguistic Institutes.
