Call for Participation
The 18th International Lexical Functional Grammar Conference (LFG13)
18 July - 20 July 2013
Debrecen University, Hungary
Conference website: http://lfg13.unideb.hu
Conference e-mail: hungram (at) unideb (dot) hu
Early-bird registration deadline: 10 June 2013
LFG 2013 presents work within the formal architecture of
Lexical-Functional Grammar as well as typological, formal, and
computational work within the 'spirit of LFG' as a lexicalist approach
to language employing a parallel, constraint-based framework. The
conference aims to promote interaction and collaboration among
researchers interested in non-derivational approaches to grammar, where
grammar is seen as the interaction of (perhaps violable) constraints
from multiple levels of structuring, including those of syntactic
categories, grammatical relations, semantics and discourse.
Further information about LFG as a syntactic theory is available at the
following sites:
