Call for papers
The New Fields for Morphology Workshop seeks papers on any topic in morphological theory or typology based on new empirical data. In addition to the open call, we also request papers for the theme session on 'Complexities of Exponence'.
Themed session: Complexities of exponence
The workshop will include a dedicated session on the theme of 'Complexities of Exponence.'
Exponence refers to mapping between morphosyntactic and morphosemantic contexts and the internal structure of morphologically complex words. Typically, morphosyntactic and morphosemantic contexts are represented as feature values and in the simplest possible of worlds, each feature value maps uniquely onto a single unique form. However, morphologists are aware that this mapping is rarely simple in reality. The workshop seeks papers which explore complexity in this relationship from any theoretical or typological perspective.
