Meeting Description: 

(Session of Generative Linguistics in the Old World 42)

The syntax and semantics of pronominal elements has been at the center of much
theoretical research throughout the history of modern syntactic and semantic
theory (e.g., Chomsky 1981). In recent years, an increasing role has been
played by cross-linguistic comparison (e.g. Cardinaletti & Starke 1999,
Déchaine & Wiltschko 2002, Patel-Grosz & Grosz 2017, Jenks to appear),
highlighting significant yet constrained variation in the behavior of
pronominal and anaphoric elements across languages. Inspired by these
findings, this workshop aims to bring together current research on the syntax
and semantics of pronouns and other anaphoric elements from a cross-linguistic
perspective, with a focus on languages that are understudied, underrepresented
and/or endangered.
