Back to basics (Retour aux sources?): la mesure de la complexité en 
phonologie.

1. Histoire et ambiguïté de la notion de marque en phonologie: complexité, 
spécification, rapport implicationnel, optimalité, fréquence.

2. Problème I: Quel est le fondement de la spécification? Spécification 
contrastive versus Radical underspecification theory (Archangeli).

3. Problème II: Questions liées à la spécification contrastive: 'pairwise 
algorithm' versus 'successive division algorithm' (Dresher); binarisme versus 
monovalence des traits ; la marque comme opération mentale.

4. Qu'est-ce qui est dans le lexique? Allophonie et 'phonetic detail', pertinence 
et linéarité du signifiant.

The venue of the course will be Faculdade de Letras da Universidade do 
Porto (Porto, Portugal). Sessions will be taught in French (though English and 
Portuguese may be used in discussion and debate).

Timetable: 
Tue-Fri, 9 am - 1 pm
