2nd Call for Papers: NLPerspectives – The 4th Workshop on Perspectivist Approaches to NLP Collocated with EMNLP in Suzhou, China Until recently, language resources supporting many tasks in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and other areas of Artificial Intelligence (AI) have been based on the assumption of a single ‘ground truth’ label sought via aggregation, adjudication, or statistical means. However, the field is increasingly focused on subjective and controversial tasks, such as qual

SUMMARY True to its title, this textbook assumes literary interests on the part of its readers but no linguistic background. It aims to provide basic tools and concepts of stylistic analysis and is accessible to literature students at graduate or upper undergraduate levels. The format lends itself to learning of discrete points, as the content is organized into 26 chapters of 5-10 pages each, each self-contained and focusing on one grammatical category or stylistic feature. The book opens wit

Focus: Cognitive and Functional Linguistics Description: The Centre for Philosophical and Humanistic Studies from the Faculty of Philosophy and Social Sciences of the Portuguese Catholic University organizes Braga Summer School in Linguistics, within the scope of the Doctoral Program in Linguistics.

This book is dedicated to Ilse Zimmermann, who was a pioneer of Generative Grammar in Germany and made important contributions to the analysis of German and Slavic languages. It contains original articles by Zimmermann as well as newly written papers inspired by her work. Zimmermann's original articles cover a wide range of topics over a long period of research – the earliest dating from 1983 – and they make it clear that issues that are highly topical today have long been the subject of linguis

Rare phenomena play a key role in forming and challenging linguistic theory. This volume presents multi-faceted analyses of rarities in phonetics and phonology, from a wide variety of theoretical standpoints. Some contributions to the volume analyse language-specific rare features, placing them in a broader cross-linguistic context and looking at a sum of their phonological, phonetic, and evolutionary properties, at times also making connections to sociolinguistic factors. Others consider the sa

Tsova-Tush is an East Caucasian language spoken in one single village in Eastern Georgia by approximately 300 speakers. Since its early description, scholars have been intrigued by the high degree of linguistic influence from the Georgian language. This book has a threefold goal: (1) To contribute to the overall description of the Tsova-Tush language, by filling gaps in the previous literature in absence of a reference grammar. (2) To contrast Tsova-Tush constructions with functionally equivalen
