Phonology

Expanding upon last year’s morphonology session, this year we would like to broaden the area of investigation and propose a return to the question of the position and the role of phonology within grammar as a modular system.

In particular, we welcome papers dealing with one or more of the following interfaces:

morphology and phonology,
syntax and phonology,
semantics and phonology.

Finally, of special interest are the relations between the lexicon and phonology, and the interdepen-dency of representation and derivation.

Below are but a few exemplary issues we would welcome during the discussion:

Are there interpreter boxes between components, or rather some or all components operate over the same set of symbols in representation, taking what is their domain, and leaving the rest intact?
Are the relations between morphology and phonology unidirectional, or is there a feedback loop?
Is there a common denominator for phono-morphology and morpho-phonology?

Of course, phonological papers from outside this scope are also welcome.

At this stage the following scholars have confirmed their participation in the session: Nikolaus Ritt (Vienna), Jerzy Rubach (Iowa and Warsaw), Tobias Scheer (Nice), and Rajendra Singh (Montreal).
