Meeting Description:

The workshop 'Bare nouns and Genericity' will be held at the Université 
Paris Diderot - Laboratoire de Linguistique Formelle - UMR 7110 CNRS on 
October 7th-8th, 2010.
The workshop is organized by the bilateral project CAPES/COFECUB 2008-
2012 Bare Nouns in Brazilian Portuguese at the syntax-semantics interface, 
between the Université Paris Diderot (resp. Carmen Dobrovie-Sorin) and 
the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (resp. Roberta Pires de 
Oliveira). The workshop will consist of about 10 talks by researchers 
involved in the above-mentioned research project, while 10 slots will be 
allocated to selected talks (30 min. + 10 min. for discussion) by external 
participants. The goal of the workshop is to increase the understanding of 
the structural and referential properties of bare nominals across languages; 
we invite submissions of abstracts bearing on any aspect of the syntax and 
semantics of BNs, both in a language-specific and a crosslinguistic 
perspective.The official languages of the workshop are English and French.
