Meeting Description: 

We are pleased to announce that the University of Palermo organises a workshop
on “The Syntax of Causative, Perception, and Restructuring Verbs in Romance
and Latin” which is to be held on May 26-27, 2022. It is part of the annual
SCUPs (Syntactic Conferences at the University of Palermo).

The aim of this workshop is to deepen our empirical and theoretical knowledge
on the syntax of infinitives, gerunds and pseudo-relative clauses with
causative, perception and restructuring verbs in Romance languages and
varieties, as well as on older stages, starting from Latin, and on the
diachronic path that led to an evolution within these constructions.

Invited Speakers:
- Pilar P. Barbosa (U do Minho)
- Adriana Belletti (Siena)
- Pierluigi Cuzzolin (Bergamo)
- Maria-Teresa Guasti (U Bicocca, Milan)
- Adam Ledgeway (Cambridge)
- Alexandru Nicolae (Bucharest)
- Francisco Ordóñez (Stony Brook)
- Esther Rinke (Frankfurt)
