2nd CALL FOR PAPERS TOULOUSE 7-11 July 2003

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE

>>From representations to constraints

DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACTS: 1 DEC 2002

- -------------------------

The phonology team of the Equipe de Recherche en Syntaxe et
Sémantique (CNRS & Université de Toulouse-Le Mirail) will
organise in Toulouse, in partnership with the GDR 1954 Phonologie du
CNRS, an international conference on the theme 'From representations
to constraints'. Coordinator:
 Elsa Gomez-Imbert.


The conference is made up of two parts:

1) "Headhood, contrastivity and specification"
Coordinators: P. Carr et J. Durand
Monday 7th July to Wednesday 9th July lunchtime

2) "From representations to constraints and from constraints to representations"
Coordinators: L. Labrune, E. Gomez-Imbert.
Wed 9th July pm to Friday 11th July pm

Scientific Committee: Luigi Burzio, Phil Carr, Nick Clements,
François Dell, Jacques Durand, Colin Ewen, Elsa Gomez-Imbert, John
Harris, Harry van der Hulst, Abdelkrim Jebbour, Laurence Labrune,
Chantal Lyche, Joan Mascaró, Carole Paradis, Patrick Sauzet.

The list of guest speakers includes: John Anderson, Luigi Burzio,
Teresa Cabré, François Dell, Colleen Fitzgerald, Shosuke
Haraguchi, John Harris, Harry van der Hulst, Darlene La Charité,
Maria-Rosa Lloret, Carole Paradis, Pilar Prieto, Curt Rice, Filomena
Spatti Sandalo.

- -------------------------

The aim of this conference is to explore, on the one hand, the nature
of concepts such as headhood, contrast and specification in
phonology and, on the other, the part played by representations in
constraint-based phonologies. Most phonological frameworks appeal to
the notion of head within phonological domains and, while this
notion may seem transparent, one can nevertheless wonder about its
homogeneity from domain to domain: for example within syllabic
constituents, stress groups and infrasegmental structure. Closely
linked to this question is that of the specification of
phonological elements and the role played by contrast in the
establishment of phonological structure. While the role of
constraints within phonological theories is now well supported,
various constraint based theories such as Optimality Theory are not
theories of representations. Nevertheless, representational
questions continue to pose problems. Do they emerge from constraints
or do they need to be given a central place within phonological
theory ? And if so, how can their form be specified ? These are some of
the questions which will be addressed within the conference.

- -------------------------

The whole conference will be made up of 40 papers of 50 mn each
(including discussion time), poster sessions and a round table for
each part of the conference. Twenty of the papers will be by
invitation, and twenty papers will be selected by the scientific
committee on the basis of the abstracts.

 Please send an anonymised summary of 400 words maximum, specifying
whether you wish to be considered for a paper and/or a poster
presentation.


Languages: French and English.

DEADLIINE FOR ABSTRACTS: 1 DEC 2002.
