Valentina Apresjan (Dartmouth College), Mikhail Kopotev (University of Helsinki), Piotr Sobotka (Polish Academy of Sciences), Mladen Uhlik (University of Ljubljana) This workshop aims to bring together researchers interested in the syntax, semantics, and pragmatics of constructions with multiple WH-words across languages. Such constructions involve two or more WH-elements that typically distribute over different arguments or functions, rather than forming collective units (cf. Moravcsik 1978;

Final Call for Papers: The term “micromorphology” was coined by Stump 2017b for the hypothesis that an affix can itself be morphologically complex. Variations of this hypothesis and its uses have been investigated by Bochner 1993, Soukka 2000, Luís and Spencer 2005, and Stump 2017a, b, 2023, among others. The relevant phenomenon is illustrated for derivational suffixes in (1), see Stump 2017b for the demonstration that (1) involves a complex suffix rather than iterative addition. (1) a. whi

The Kinds of Agency conference invites interdisciplinary exploration of the many forms and manifestations of agency. From intentional action and communication to moral responsibility, autonomy, and selfhood, agency is central to our understanding of human cognition and behavior.

Contact between geographical varieties of a language is usually analyzed under the same framework as with autonomous languages. One difference often highlighted is that borr

Since the advent of transdisciplinary death studies in the 1970s, a plethora of research has been conducted in the humanities and social sciences on death-related issues, including end-of-life conditions and bereavement.
