Meeting Description:

Alongside the summer school ''Form-Meaning Mismatches in Natural Language''
(http://www.uni-goettingen.de/de/form-meaning+mismatches+in+natural+language/5
75177.html) taking place at the Georg-August-University Göttingen, a workshop
on related issues will be held on 3-4 August 2018. The topic of the summer
school as well as the workshop is the mapping between form and meaning. The
idea that the form of a sentence reflects its meaning or the other way round
is challenged by formal elements that are not reflected in the decomposition
of meaning or by the presence of meaning components without straightforward
exponents in the form of linguistic expressions.

Invited speakers:

Hilda Koopman (UCLA)
Vera Hohaus (Tübingen) & Amy Rose Deal (UC Berkeley)
Hubert Truckenbrodt (ZAS/HU Berlin)

Note that the talk by Katharina Turgay (Landau) & Daniel Gutzmann (Cologne)
had to be cancelled for scheduling reasons.


2nd Call for Papers:

Deadline extended until 18 June 2018

For this two-day workshop, we invite presentations of 35+10 minutes relating
to the overarching issue of form-meaning mismatches from a variety of
theoretical and empirical perspectives, including typological and diachronic
approaches. Submissions from local researchers and from participants of the
summer school are encouraged as well and will be considered along with other
contributions on their own merits.

Abstract Submission:

Abstracts must be anonymous (nothing in the abstract or the document should
identify the authors) and consist of no more than two pages (margins: 2.5 cm
or 1 inch, character size: 12 points), including references, figures, and
data.

Abstracts must be submitted in PDF format via Easychair: 
https://easychair.org/cfp/FMM2018

Extended deadline for submissions: 18 June 2018
Notifications of acceptance will be sent out in the second half of June
Workshop: 3-4 August 2018
