Call for Papers:

CROSSIN: Intonation at the Crossroads
Speech Prosody Satellite Workshop, Leiden, Saturday 6 July 2024

WORKSHOP ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR POSTER PRESENTATIONS
Intonation is studied by different disciplines in which the research
focus varies. One element these approaches have in common is that they
must all address intonation meaning. This applies whether researchers
are mostly interested in the phonological representation of
intonation, its interaction with syntax, semantics, and pragmatics, or
its role in communication and speech processing. These perspectives
complement each other, yet it is often the case that research focusing
on one does not give full consideration to the others: for instance,
syntactic approaches to the role of intonation in expressing focus may
overlook differences in phonological form in focus expression, while
pragmatic approaches may assume that each meaning nuance is directly
expressed by a different tune; conversely, studies on intonation
phonetics and phonology do not always fully consider meaning.

The aim of this workshop is to reach a more comprehensive view, by
bringing together researchers working on intonation from different
perspectives so they can enter into dialogue with and learn from each
another. The main questions of the workshop are:

1.      What is the relationship between syntax, semantics,
pragmatics, and intonation? Can we expect a one-to-one correspondence
between intonation categories or tunes, on the one hand, and focus or
other semantic or pragmatic functions, on the other?
2.      How can we best understand and model intonation meaning and
intonation’s role in conversation and processing?

We invite abstracts addressing the questions above. The selected
abstracts will be presented in a poster session. If there is
sufficient interest, poster presentations will be published as a
special issue or collection.

Keynote speakers: The workshop also includes invited talks by Stavros
Skopeteas (Göttingen), Anja Arnhold (Alberta), and commentaries by
James German (Aix-Marseille) and Claire Beyssade (Paris 8). The
workshop will end with a general round-table discussion. For more
