                         Workshop announcement

Dear colleagues,

We are happy to announce the programme of the workshop "Effects of
Morphological Case, to be held at the Utrecht Institute of Linguistics OTS,
Utrecht University, 28-29 August 1998.

Organizers: Helen de Hoop, Olaf Koeneman, Iris Mulders, and Fred Weerman

INVITED SPEAKERS: PAUL KIPARSKY, JOAN MALING, ALEC MARANTZ

The aim of this workshop is to bring together theoretical and
empirical considerations on the effects of morphological case beyond its
mere phonological characteristics. Issues for discussion involve the
implications of morphological case for abstract case theory, the difference
between structural and inherent case, agreement, word order phenomena,
grammaticalization processes, discourse theory, and semantics.
