Meeting Description:

Analogy in Inflection is a workshop associated with the Twentieth
International Morphology Meeting. 

Analogy is invoked to account for a wide-range of synchronic and diachronic
phenomena, yet is still only partially understood. This is true whether
analogy is approached as a language-specific capacity for producing meaningful
novel forms based on perceived patterns, or as a domain-general cognitive
ability for reasoning about relationships between elements based on prior
knowledge (Fertig 2013:12).

Work on analogy to date encompasses many theoretical disagreements. Some
issues are overtly stated, including: Is analogy as a type of change
(Sturtevant 1917; Lehmann 1962) or does it underlie all productive language
use (Saussure 1916:179, 226-8; Meillet 1908:47; Jespersen 1922, Bloomfield
1933:275-7)? Is language transmission the locus of change (Paul 1886, Halle
1962:64-5, King 1969:78, Kiparsky 1965, Aitchison 2001:201-2; Janda 2001), or
has this been overemphasised (Bolinger 1968:93,104; Haspelmath 1998; Bybee
2009)? Is paradigm levelling an extension of a non-alternating pattern
(Garrett 2008:142; Hill 2007, Albright 2005; Sturtevant 1917) or is it a bias
preferring nonalternating stems (Kenstowicz 1996, Kiparsky 1971, Kiparsky
1992, Jeffers & Lehiste 1979, McCarthy 2005 ), somewhere in the middle
(Osthoff 1879:42-4; Wheeler 1887:31; Bybee 1980; Hock 1986:179- 82; Fertig
1999; Reiss 2006), or is the distinction between the two epiphenomenal
(Garrett 2008, SimsWilliams 2016, Hill 2020)?

However, less attention has been paid to clarifying the implicit assumptions
in much of this work. This workshop intends to bring together researchers to
spell out assumptions often implicit in our investigations of analogy within
inflectional paradigms.
