Linguistic Field(s): Morphology; Phonology; Semantics; Syntax 

Call Deadline: 21-Mar-2021 

Meeting Description:

This workshop aims at bringing together researchers interested in the
grammatical properties of theme vowels and thematic formatives, focusing not
only on their morpho-phonology (as in the more traditional
historical-comparative literature), but also on their contribution at the
levels of argument structure, syntax and semantics. Contributions from
generative as well as from formal approaches to morphology are particularly
welcome. The issues at the heart of this workshop include, but are not limited
to the following:

 - syntactic and post-syntactic interaction of thematic formatives with
categories in the VP/vP
 - role played by thematic formatives in argument structure (alternations) and
in semantic composition
 - dynamics of the interplay between thematic formatives and phonological
structure
 - patterns of allomorphy involving thematic formatives (either as a trigger
or as a target)
 - patterns of allosemy involving thematic formatives
 - parallels and differences between thematic formatives in V(P) and N(P)
 - (constraints on) distribution of thematic formatives in lexical categories
 - origin and dismantlement of thematic formative systems
 - re-structuring of thematic formative systems in language contact  

Invited speakers:
 - Itamar Kastner (University of Edinburgh) and Fabienne Martin (HU, Berlin)
 - Ora Matushansky (CNRS/Paris VIII)
 - Isabel Oltra-Massuet (Universitat Rovira i Virgili, Tarragona)
 - Michal Starke (Masaryk University, Brno)


Call for Papers: 

Abstracts (anonymous, max. 2A4-pages inclusive of examples, tables, figures
and references) for regular talks (45 minutes presentation + 15 minutes
discussion) must be submitted via the EasyChair, at the following link:
