                          Call for abstracts

                       MOVE AND INTERPRET ALPHA:

 workshop on movement-related issues in the syntax, semantics, and the
                       syntax-semantics interface

                           March 20-21, 1999


  Keynote speaker:  Kyle Johnson, University of Massachusetts, Amherst


                          Center of Excellence

               Kanda University of International Studies

                         Makuhari, Chiba, Japan


We invite abstract submissions for 40-minute talks on issues having to
do with movement which arise in the areas of syntax, semantics, and
the syntax-semantics interface.  Work which aims to distinguish
interpretations by means of movement, discusses the syntactic or
semantic repercussions of movement, investigates the syntactic or
semantic aspects of movement-created dependencies, or argues for or
against the use of movement for dealing with particular syntactic or
semantic phenomena is welcome.  Possibly relevant topics include
wh-movement, quantifier raising, reconstruction, quantifier float,
island effects, parasitic gaps, pied-piping, and relative clauses.


The deadline for receipt of abstracts is January 31st, 1999.  Please
send five copies of a non-anonymous abstract (maximally 2 pages in
length, using a legible font, with 1" margins on all sides, A4 or US
Letter paper), along with a sheet of paper bearing the author's name,
affiliation, paper title, and e-mail and regular mail
addresses. E-mail submissions will also be accepted (.ps or .pdf
formats).  Send abstracts by mail to:


Move and Interpret Alpha Workshop
COE, Kanda University of International Studies
1-4-1 Wakaba, Mihama-ku
Chiba-shi, Chiba-ken

Send abstracts or questions by e-mail to both Uli Sauerland and Norvin
Richards at:
