IWSPM2025: 2nd International Workshop on the Syntax of Predication and Modification Date: 01-Sep-2025 - 02-Sep-2025 Location: Budapest, Hungary Contact Person: Marcel den Dikken and Éva Dékány Meeting Email: [email protected] Web Site: https://tinyurl.com/2wwebnum Linguistic Field(s): Linguistic Theories; Semantics; Syntax Call Deadline: 02-May-2025 Call for Papers: As a sequel to the successful International Workshop on the Syntax of Predication and Modification 2024, the HUN-REN Hungarian Research Centre for Linguistics will host the 2nd International Workshop on the Syntax of Predication and Modification (IWSPM2025) in Budapest, Hungary, on 1–2 September 2025. IWSPM2025 will be an in-person-only event. Like its predecessor, this workshop seeks to foster fruitful dialogue between researchers through syntactic analyses of construction types involving predication and modification, from a wide range of languages and analytical perspectives. Questions Central to the Workshop – What are the syntactic configurations for predication and modification? – Can the syntactic configurations for predication and modification be unified? If not, what is it that necessitates syntactic differentiation between predication and modification? – Is there synchronic cross-linguistic variation in the syntax of predication and modification? If so, what is this syntactic variation rooted in? – Is there a diachronic evolution of the syntax of predication and modification? If so, what has enabled the syntax of predication and modification to evolve in this way/these ways? Keynote Speakers – senior invited speaker: Hideki Kishimoto (Kobe University, Japan) – junior invited speaker: Andrea Szávó (University of Debrecen, Hungary) Call for Papers For IWSPM2025, we invite submissions of abstracts for 25-minute presentations (followed by 10-minute discussion) on any topic in the syntax of predication and modification and/or its interface with semantics. We especially welcome submissions addressing questions from a formal syntactic perspective. Abstracts should not identify the author, and may not exceed two pages (A4 with 2.5 cm margins or US letter with 1 inch margins on all sides), including examples, references and tables/figures. Fonts should be no smaller than 12- point Times New Roman. The top of the first page should include the title of the paper and, on a separate text line, up to 5 keywords. Abstracts should be submitted in PDF via the workshop E-mail address: [email protected]. Important Dates Abstract submission deadline: 2 May, 2025 Notification of acceptance: 1 June, 2025 Meeting Dates: 1–2 September, 2025 Important Websites Abstract submission: [email protected] Homepage of IWSPM2025: https://tinyurl.com/2wwebnum Homepage of IWSPM2024: https://sites.google.com/view/iwspm2024/home Contact For inquiries about the workshop, please contact one of the workshop conveners (Marcel den Dikken and Éva Dékány) via the workshop E-mail address ( [email protected] ). --
