Meeting Description:

We are thrilled to announce that we are holding an international
workshop entitled, “Current Issues in Comparative Syntax 2: Boundaries
of Ellipsis Mismatch”, in a hybrid format (face-to-face and live via
zoom) at Tsuda University, Kodaira Campus, in Tokyo, Japan.

We are going to invite a good mixture of emerging and established
prominent researchers working on a wide variety of languages with
different research strengths and profiles from diverse theoretical
frameworks, both domestic and worldwide, to exchange our latest ideas
on current topical issues surrounding ellipsis and ellipsis mismatch,
including, but not limited to: a) the nature of identity conditions
(syntactic, semantic, discourse, information structure or all of the
above), b) operational mechanisms underlying various ellipsis
phenomena (PF-deletion, LF-copying, pragmatic enrichment, or syntactic
deletion), c) the diversity and uniformity of ellipsis construction
types across typologically different languages, and d) the very origin
of ellipsis and ellipsis mismatch in natural language syntax.

We would like to hold this workshop as an important international
collaborative exercise to have a better wholistic understanding of
such fundamental, big-picture questions like “What is really the
nature of ellipsis?”, “What controls ellipsis?”, and “How much can we
mismatch under ellipsis and why?”, questions which have remained
poorly addressed in individual research on ellipsis, and to iron out
current issues for future generations of ellipsists to work on.

Worshop Expansion:

The organizers have expanded the workshop both in terms of the
duration (from a two-day workshop to a three-day workshop) and in
terms of the number of invited speakers (20 speakers in total).
Unfortunately, however, due to ther very limited space avaialble in
September 1-3 (when the time of the workshop coincides with that of
the third term of Tsuda University), we request that all participants
of the workshop join us only remotely through Zoom except the domestic
invited speakers.

We sincerely request your cooperation on this matter.

If you agree with this "online only policy" for attendees, please
proceed and fill out your information below by August 27 (Sunday)
23:59:59 (JST). You will receive Zoom information for the workshop
after your online registration.
