Topics include:
- Re-examination of the Models of Prosodic Phonology
- Prosody and Syntax of Wh-interrogatives

- Experimental Syntax
Speakers include:
Caroline Féry (Potsdam), Yuki Hirose (Tokyo), Shinichiro Ishihara (Potsdam), Junko Ito (UCSC), Sun-Ah Jun (UCLA), Yoshihisa Kitagawa (Indiana), Robert Kluender (UCSD), Haruo Kubozono (Kobe), Armin Mester (UCSC), Norvin Richards (MIT), Jennifer Smith (UNC), Satoshi Tomioka (Delaware)

Guys,
This looks (meaning “orthographically sounds”) GREAT. But I have three questions: 1. Could a person outside of linguistics per se, but a keen reader therein + a kind of sociologist-of-language-at-the-same-time “attend”? 2. Is there a cost associated with this? 3. If “yes” to #2, QUANTA COSTA???

Vernon — please keep checking the workshop website for information, or you can contact the person who originally posted this on LINGUIST List. We have nothing to do with the workshop; I was just publicizing the workshop on this blog for those who may be interested.
