Meeting Description:

Organisation : Irina THOMIÈRES (CeLiSo), Freiderikos VALETOPOULOS (FoReLLIS)

Causation is an essential field of research for linguists and continues to be
the subject of various publications. Causation can be approached from
different perspectives: lexical semantics, formal semantics, morphology,
syntax, cognitive grammar, the theory of conceptual metaphor, the theory of
relevance, to name a few. 

This third edition of the Grammar of Causation (International?) Conference is
part of a long tradition: ''The Grammar of Causation I'' in 2015 and ''The
Grammar of Causation II'' in 2018.
This third edition of the « The Grammar of the Causation » Conference is
organized around the following topics:
-the definition of causation;
-the typology of causation;
-causative verbs, including psychological verbs, but also verbs that fall
within the physical or the mental domain;
-present and past participles who, in a given context, express causation;
-the metaphorical use of causative verbs;
-connectors: classification and conditions of use;
-prepositions: conditions of use, synonymy ;
 -compound nominal predicates in which one of the elements can be interpreted
as the origin of a given phenomenon: aromat roz (aroma of roses), les pleurs
des enfants (the crying of children), il suono del pianoforte (the sound of
the piano), sound of the forest, ο ήχος του τυμπάνου (the sound of the drum),
etc.
-translation problems and lexical gaps;
-the expression of causation in sentences without a connector;
-teaching ways of express the causation in the context of French as a Foreign
Language;
-causality and modality; causality and temporality; causativity and
resultivity;
-other problems: consult us.
