Call for Papers
WORKSHOP on: Quantification: Collectivity, and Reciprocity
Organizers: Stanley Peters & Jaap van der Does

In the first week of the Ninth European Summer School in Logic, Language,
and Information (ESSLLI'97) there will be a workshop on Quantification.
This workshop aims to give a representative overview of recent logical and
linguistic developments on dynamic quantification, collectivity, and
reciprocity.
The focus is on the interconnections between these topics, and on strategies for
disambiguating the often impressive amount of readings.

We invite researchers who want to participate in our workshop
to send a short abstract (ca. one page; title, name, affiliation, email
included) by email to: jvddoes at fwi.uva.nl, or: peters at Prosit.Stanford.EDU
before March 21.  In particular, PhD students are encouraged to
use this event to disseminate their work.

ESSLLI'97 is to be held in Aix-en-Provence, France, from
August 11 until August 22, 1997. For further information
