Meeting Description: 

The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Sprachwissenschaft (DGfS, German Linguistics
Association) and University of Freiburg’s Hermann Paul Centre for Linguistics
(HPCL) cordially invite colleagues throughout the world to attend and
participate in their 43rd Annual Conference: “Modelling and Evidence.” The
conference motto is an invitation to reflect on the manifold productive
tensions between theoretical/conceptual innovation and new ways of acquiring,
annotating and analysing empirical data – across the whole range of linguistic
sub-disciplines and using data from a broad range of languages for
demonstration. The conference will feature keynote talks by internationally
renowned experts in their fields and 15 thematic sections.

For general information on the conference see contact details. Calls for
papers will be announced by section organisers from June 2020. Registration
will be open from 1 November 2020 (with early bird-rates applying until 31
December 2020).
 

Program Information: 

The following internationally renowned colleagues have agreed to give keynote
talks:

 - Geert Booij (Leiden University), “Modeling morphological knowledge: What
counts as evidence?”
 - Martine Grice (Universität zu Köln), “Autosegmental-metrical phonology –
Not only pitch accents and edge tones”
 - Eitan Grossman (Hebrew University of Jerusalem), “Universals of
phonological segment borrowing? Questions, evidence, methods, findings”
 - Marianne Mithun (University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB)), “Adding
the prosodic dimension to subordination and its emergence”
 - Devyani Sharma (Queen Mary University London), “The exception proves the
rule?: Sociolinguistic theory in a changing world”

In addition, the conference will feature the following thematic sections:
1. Grammatical gaps: Definition, typology and theory (Thomas Strobel, Helmut
Weiß)
2. Weak elements in prosodic acquisition and processing (Ulrike Domahs, Angela
Grimm, Mathias Scharinger)
3. The semantics of derivational morphology: Theory, methods, evidence (Sven
Kotowski, Ingo Plag) – see https://linguistlist.org/issues/31/31-1977.html for
call for papers
4. Free variation = unexplained variation? Empirical and theoretical
approaches to optionality in grammar (Kristin Kopf, Thilo Weber)
5. Encoding aspectuality in Germanic languages: empirical and theoretical
approaches (Hannah Fischer, Melitta Gillman, Mirjam Schmuck)
6. Empirical approaches to canonical and non-canonical uses of negation
(Katharina Schaebbicke, Heiko Seeliger)
7. On the nouniness of propositional arguments (Katrin Axel-Tober, Lutz
Gunkel, Jutta M. Hartmann, Anke Holler)
8. Ditransitives across languages and frameworks (Cherlon Ussery, Jóhannes
Gísli Jónsson, Nicole Dehé)
9. The semantics and pragmatics of conditional connectives (Mingya Liu,
Mathias Barthel)
10. Prosodic boundary phenomena (Fabian Schubö, Sabine Zerbian, Sandra Hanne,
Isabell Wartenburger)
11. Edge-asymmetries in morphophonology (Daniel Gleim, Marie-Luise Popp)
12. Eye-tracking and language production (Martina Penke, Judith Schlenter,
Elyesa Seidel)
13. Model and evidence in quantitative comparative linguistics (Gerhard Jäger,
Johann-Mattis List)
14. Grammatische Modellierung als Grundlage für sprachdidaktische Vermittlung
(Anja Müller, Katharina Turgay)
15. Contrastive corpus methodology for language modeling and analysis (Martin
Klotz, Anke Lüdeling, Anna Shadrova)

Note: Sections are not autonomous and of unequal length. The conference is
organised as an integrated event, with participants being encouraged to 'cross
over' between sections.
