<P class="MsoNormal"><B><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">=============================</SPAN></B></P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><B><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"></SPAN></B> </P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><B><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Context<o></o></SPAN></B></P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Exemplars have been around in psychology for thirty years.<o></o></SPAN></P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">In linguistics, exemplars are promising as an alternative base for theoretical linguistics, understood as that which together seeks to account for linguistic productivity, learnability and linguistic change: exemplars would make up for the limits of abstraction-based theories.<o></o></SPAN></P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Over the last fifteen years, exemplars have been used mainly in phonology and in morphology, a little in syntax. Today, their use in semantics is just emerging.<o></o></SPAN></P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Parallel to this, philosophers propose to circumvent the shortages of Fregean descriptivism with notions such as 'object file' or 'mental file'.<o></o></SPAN></P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Exemplars and mental files both substitute one abstract entity with a set of more concrete ones. This character is shared by a number of approaches that vary however in scope, intent, and in the way they profile the exemplars and subject them to their goals. So a scene is currently building up that is promising, and that is both unitary and diverse.</SPAN></P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"><o></o></SPAN> </P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><B><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Purpose and intent<o></o></SPAN></B></P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Survey recent advances in linguistics tending to show why exemplars are wanted in semantics and how their proponents configure them.<o></o></SPAN></P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Identify what is meant by 'exemplar' as far as semantics is concerned: is the concept univocally defined, what the different acceptations are, how they compare, what merits each has. <o></o></SPAN></P>
<P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Assess what stage different approaches have reached: programmatic / partial achievements / identified open issues / directions for progress.</SPAN></P>
