Meeting Description: 

We are delighted to announce that the Cambridge Workshop on Voice (CamVoice)
will take place this May 22-24 in Cambridge, UK. The theme of the workshop is
voice and voice-related phenomena across languages as well as in Eastern
Romance, and how these inform theoretical, typological and/or experimental
work. During the first two days, there will be a general session on voice
phenomena cross-linguistically. This will be followed, on the third day, by a
special session dedicated to voice phenomena and variation across Eastern
Romance varieties. This workshop is a dissemination activity for the Aromanian
Syntax (AROSYN) project, awarded to Dr. Marios Mavrogiorgos (Researcher) in
collaboration with Professor Adam Ledgeway (PI) and funded from the European
Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie
Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 657663 to the Italian Department,
University of Cambridge.
