Meeting Description:

Linguists, logicians, philosophers, psychologists, and interested
researchers from other areas are cordially invited to join the 25th
Workshop on the Roots of Pragmasemantics to be held on the top of the
Szrenica mountain in the Giant Mountains on the border of Poland and
the Czech Republic on February 21-24, 2025.

See https://sites.google.com/view/25th-szklarska-poreba-workshop/ for
more information.

We especially invite papers on this jubilee edition's special theme,
the impact of Large-Language-Models-based AI on the various fields of
language study. Is there still a role for the traditional concepts and
goals of e.g. grammar, semantics, language development, text
generation, etc.?

This year's invited speakers are:

▪ Scott Grimm, University of Rochester, USA (confirmed)
▪ Natasha Korotkova, Utrecht University, The Netherlands (half
confirmed)
▪ Edgar Onea, Universität Graz, Austria (confirmed)

We also welcome contributions relevant to any of the more classical
subjects of this workshop series. Experimental as well as theoretical
approaches are welcome. We in particular encourage the presentation of
innovative ideas, even if still in need of later refinement and
submissions by students who have no previous experience presenting at
international workshops.

Some traditional Szklarska Poręba themes are:

- Coordination on meaning
- Inference in natural language
- Experimental semantics and pragmatics
- Bayesian models of interpretation
- Quantum cognition and language
- Grammaticalisation and other approaches to diachrony
- Language typology and semantics/pragmatics
- Game theoretical pragmatics
- Formal models of language acquisition
- Explicature and implicature
- The architecture of the syntax/semantics interface
- Licensing of polarity elements, quantification etc.
- The evolution of communication and language
- Optimality theory

Submission instructions:

We invite submission of BLIND abstracts in PDF format, to be sent to:
szklarskaworkshop (AT) gmail (DOT) com by December 16, 2024.

Acceptance decisions will be made by mid January 2025.

Abstract guidelines:
No longer than one A4 page including references, anonymous, 2.5cm
margins, 11pt. If this is your first presentation outside of your home
institution, please indicate this in your cover email.
