International
Workshop Formal models of linguistic diversity Trieste,
October 12-13, 2007
|
||
|
|
The workshop, jointly held as the result of a
cooperation project by the Universities of Utrecht, Trieste and Verona, seeks
to offer the opportunity for scholars in different branches of Linguistics to
meet and discuss some of the most recent developments and research trends
concerning the study of linguistic diversity in space and time, with the aim
of fostering an innovative and productive collaboration. The workshop is meant to
address some of the key problems of theoretical linguistics, crosscutting the
synchronic and diachronic dimensions, such as the nature of linguistic
variation, the validity of parametric approaches and the possible
alternatives, the application of biological models to the study of language
evolution, language transmission and language classification, the role of
acquisitional mechanisms in language change, the computational modeling of
linguistic diversity, the interplay between different modules of linguistic
knowledge in creating the space of linguistic variation. |
