[PLing] 3rd CFP: Dissecting Morphological Theory 3: Diminutivization, Allomorphy and the Architecture of Grammar

[Katharina Korecky-Kröll]

Dear colleagues,

Due to confusion of events and places, I am re-posting the 3rd CFP of 
the workshop Dissecting Morphological Theory 3: Diminutivization, 
Allomorphy and the Architecture of Grammar (DMTD3).

This workshop is related to IMM, not to MMM, and will take place in 
Budapest, not in Bucharest (the host of SLE 2022). The abstract 
submission deadlines for IMM and MMM are very close and both meetings 
are indeed devoted to morphology but IMM and MMM are completely 
different events. Additionally, IMM and SLE have the same abstract 
submission deadline (15 January 2022) but Budapest and Bucharest are two 
different cities in two different, though neighboring, countries.

If you have any problems to meet the abstract submission deadline for 
this workshop (15 January 2022), please do not hesitate to contact the 
workshop organizers, their e-mails are listed below.

Third CFP: Dissecting Morphological Theory 3: Diminutivization, 
Allomorphy and the Architecture of Grammar

Workshop to be held in conjunction with the_20th International 
Morphology Meeting_, Budapest, 1-4 September 
2022,http://www.nytud.hu/imm20/ [1]

This workshop is the third of a series of workshops on diminutive 
morphology and its implications for morphological theory. The workshops 
are held in conjunction with different international 
conferences:https://sites.google.com/view/morphologytheories-diminutives 
[2].

Diminutive morphology presents a number of challenges to morphological 
theory and various issues have been discussed extensively: whether 
diminutivization is derivation or inflection (Dressler 1989; Scalise 
1988; Stump 1993; Manova 2011; Grandi & Körtvélyessy 2015); are 
diminutive suffixes heads and/or modifiers (Wiltschko and Steriopolo 
2007; Steriopolo 2009, 2015, 2016; Gouskova & Bobaljik, to appear); do 
they attach "low" or "high" in the syntactic tree (De Belder et al. 
2014; Cinque 2015); which meanings are associated with diminutive 
morphology (Dressler & Merlini Barbaresi 1994; Jurafsky 1996) and so on. 
Nevertheless, there are still issues that have remained unaddressed:

1.Why do some languages have large sets of diminutive affixes, while 
others have very limited sets?

2.What is a diminutive allomorph? (Should allomorphs have the same 
semantic-pragmatic function, e.g. could they have different readings, 
either positive or negative, depending on the situation?Should 
allomorphs be associated with the same inflection class?Should 
allomorphs have the same syntactic function: are they either heads or 
modifiers or could they be both; could they attach at different 
"heights" in the syntactic tree, resulting in "high" vs. "low" 
allomorphs?)

3.How does allomorph selection take place in diminutivization? (Is it 
based on semantics, on form, on syntactic structure, on linearization, 
or on extragrammatical information?)

4.Are gender and inflection class encoded in the same way in diminutive 
and non-diminutive nouns? (If diminutive affixes impose gender and 
inflection class, what does this mean for our understanding of the 
morphology-syntax interface?)

5.What architecture of grammar best captures the peculiarities of 
diminutive morphology?
(a) Phonology after morphology, i.e. morphologically conditioned 
phonology (and consequently phonology-free syntax)
(b) Phonology before morphology, i.e. phonologically conditioned 
morphology (and maybe also syntax)
(c) A mixture of (a) and (b).

The full CFP can be accessed 
at:https://sites.google.com/view/morphologytheories-diminutives/calls-for-papers/dmtd3 
[3].

We invite papers that tackle any aspect of diminutive allomorphy within 
any linguistic theory, including papers on the diachronic development of 
  allomorphy in diminutive morphology. Contributions that analyze not 
only selected affixes but also complete diminutive systems and/or relate 
their findings to the architecture of grammar are particularly welcome.

Abstract submission

2-page anonymous abstracts for 20-minute presentations (plus 10 minutes 
for discussion) should be submitted via 
EasyChair:https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dmtd3 [4]. Submission 
of the same abstract to both the workshop and the IMM20 main session is 
not allowed.

IMM20 submissions are limited to one individual and one joint abstract 
(or two joint ones) per person. For additional information on abstract 
submission, check the IMM20 website:http://www.nytud.hu/imm20/ [1].

Important dates

Abstract submission deadline:15 January 2022

Acceptance notifications: 31 May 2022 (for all sessions of IMM20)

Conference: 1-4 September 2022
