CALL FOR PAPERS

The eighth Syntax and Semantics Conference in Paris (CSSP 2009) will  
take place on September 23-25, 2009 at Université Paris-Sorbonne. The  
Conference welcomes papers combining empirical inquiry and formal  
explicitness. CSSP aims at favoring comparisons between different  
theoretical frameworks.
CSSP conferences combine a general session and a thematic session.

Submissions for the general session may address any topic on
- syntax,
- semantics
- the syntax-semantics interface

The thematic session will focus on Evidentiality


CSSP 2009 invites submissions for 20-minute presentations (plus 10- 
minute discussions). Abstracts should be at most 2 pages in length  
(including examples and references) written in French or English. The  
same person may submit at most one abstract as a sole author and one  
as a co-author. Preference will be given to presentations that are not  
duplicated at other major  conferences.

Abstracts will be refereed anonymously by an international selection  
committee. They should be submitted through the Easychair system, at  
the following address:
