Meeting Description:

50th PLM special session convened by Jacek Witkoś and Przemysław Tajsner (Adam
Mickiewicz University in Poznań)

The syntax session of 50th PLM focuses on issues of word and morpheme order
and the link between word/morpheme orders and syntactic relations. We invite
submissions on the widest possible scope of current syntactic research
touching upon the issue of word and morpheme order across the full spectrum of
the linguistic atlas of the world. 

Invited speaker: 
Guglielmo Cinque (Ca'Foscari University of Venice)


Call for Papers: 

Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
 - correlations between linear word order and hierarchical structure (e.g.
left vs. right-branching structures, multidominance, conditions on
linearization)
 - precedence and scope
 - anaphoric/cataphoric relations
 - leftward and rightward movement operations
 - misalignments between word order and right-branching structural hierarchy
 - pre- vs. post- placement in phrasal syntax and morphology (e.g. prefix vs.
suffix distinction, pre- vs. post- modification)
 - sentence initial vs. sentence final markers (complementizers, particles,
etc.)
 - scrambling and information structure
 - sentence cartography and left periphery
 - ways of deriving word and morpheme orders (e.g. base generation, movement)

Fully anonymous pdf abstracts of 300 to 500 words (excluding the title,
keywords, linguistic examples and references) must be submitted through
EasyChair (https://easychair.org/account/signin?l=EKkLgS2uLwUkeqnWrvAJmW) and
follow the general 50th PLM criteria specified at:
