International Workshop on Secondary Predication 2021 

Date: 30-Oct-2021 - 31-Oct-2021 
Location: Tokyo (or online), Japan

Linguistic Field(s): Morphology; Semantics; Syntax 

Meeting Description: 

Predication is the backbone of natural-language syntax and semantics.
Secondary predication comes in a wide variety of forms. Early research in
theoretical linguistics shows a strong tendency to represent all forms of
secondary predication uniformly (Williams 1980). It has become clear in more
recent years that generalizations covering the entire spectrum of secondary
predication constructions (including epistemic constructions, depictives, and
resultatives) are less straightforward than previously thought, and that
detailed investigation of the various subtypes, in both verbal and nominal
environments, is of the essence in building a solid understanding of secondary
predication. In this workshop, researchers from all corners of the world are
expected to share their expertise, raise issues on various aspects of
secondary predication, and provide solutions from new perspectives by looking
into the details of the facts regarding secondary predication in the target
language(s) of investigation, and/or through cross-linguistic comparisons with
other related or unrelated languages. 

Keynote Speakers: 
Marcel den Dikken and Éva Dékány (Hungarian Research Centre for Linguistics,
Budapest)
Hideki Kishimoto (Kobe University)

Venue: 
The workshop has been shifted to the virtual conference on-line (details TBA).
If the situation allows, we will hold a hybrid meeting (online + physical
conference at Courtyard by Marriot Tokyo Station, Tokyo, Japan). (See the
conference web page for updates.)
 

Program:

This workshop will be a hybrid meeting (online + physical conference at
Courtyard by Marriot Tokyo Station, Tokyo). The physical workshop venue is
open only to the domestic audience due to the current COVID-19 situation.
