The 14th Szklarska Poreba Workshop, March 1-4, 2013****
Negation****
** **Call for papers****
Linguists, logicians and philosophers are invited to join the 14th
conference *on the Roots of Pragmasemantics*. The focus of this year's
convention is "negation". *Negation* relates to issues which are situated
at the centers at different disciplines: linguistics, cognition, logic, and
philosophy. Hence, experimental as well as theoretical approaches to the
problem are welcome including philosophical and logical underpinning. We
especially invite submissions related to this topic but also welcome
contributions relevant to any of the more classical subjects of this
workshop series. We in particular encourage the presentation of innovative
ideas, even if still in need of later refinement.
We invite submission of blind abstracts of no longer than 500 words in PDF,
to be sent to swantje.toennis@gmx.de <'swantje.toennis@gmx.de> ****
Especially relevant topics include: ****
- Truth- and non-truth-conditional aspects of negation in natural
language****
- Negation and management of the common ground and interlocutors'
backgrounds (Theory of Mind)****
- Double negation and negative concord ****
- Negative polarity items****
- Information structure and negation****
- The logic of negation****
- Crosslinguistic studies of negation****
And more traditional Szklarska Poreba themes: ****
- Logic and inference in natural language****
- Explicatures and implicatures****
- Bayesian models of interpretation and generation****
- Experimental pragmatics****
- The architecture of the syntax/semantics interface****
- Diachronic aspects of syntax****
- Quantum cognition****
- Language and computation****
- Grammaticalization studies****
- Information structure and prosody****
- Licensing of polarity elements, quantification, etc.****
- The evolution of communication and language****
- Language typology****
- Evolutionary foundations of general pragmatic principles****

February 3d.)
****
Accommodation: ****
5 to 25 ****
Skipass: ****
20 per day ****
Ski rental: ****
5 per day ****
Food: ****
3 to 6 per meal, drinks 1 ****
You can register by sending an email to
swantje.toennis@gmx.de<'swantje.toennis@gmx.de>
.****
Accommodation****
The accommodation is a ski lodge <http://www.szrenica.pl/> at the top of
the slope, with a limited supply of two-person bedrooms and a large number
of rooms with 3 to 6 beds. The lodge contains a restaurant, which serves
Polish mountain food. From the highest point the chair-lift reaches the
lodge is a further ten-minute walk through the snow, so good shoes and warm
clothing are essential.****
If you have good reason to prefer not to share a multi-person room (which
is however cheaper) please get in touch with Reinhard
Blutner<http://szklarska2013.hlotze.com/info.html#organisers-and-contact>,
who will deal with these matters in the strictest confidence. *Since the
single rooms are very limited you should contact **Reinhard
Blutner<http://szklarska2013.hlotze.com/info.html#organisers-and-contact>
**instantly (i.e. before November 10, 2012) when you prefer such a room. ***
**
Please note that it is not practical to use other accommodation, as the
lodge can only easily be reached by ski-lift, while a substantial portion
of the programme will take place outside of operating hours of the lifts.***
*
Mailing list****
We have set up a mailing list for conference participants. If you'd like to
be added to the list, removed from it or to change where you receive mail,
please contact Reinhard Blutner. (You'll be added anyway when you register.
The list is *not* the best way to contact the organisers, since your
message will also go to all other participants. Anyone may post to the
list; you can use it to arrange travel details and so on. Because of this
open posting policy, we don't list the mailing address here. When we add
you to the list you'll receive an email telling you the address for
posting; if you forget it, mail one of the organisers for a reminder.****
