Many constructions have been argued to involve multidominance: Right Node Raising (e.g., McCawley 1982; Wilder 1999; de Vries 2005, 2009; Bachrach and Katzir 2009), coordinated wh-questions (e.g., Gračanin-Yuksek 2007; Lipták 2011; Raţiu 2011, 2012; Citko and Gračanin-Yuksek 2013), gapping (e.g., Wilder 1997), ATB questions (e.g., Citko 2005). Multidominance has also been proposed as (part of) the mechanism of (overt and covert) movement (e.g., Frampton 2004; Gračanin-Yuksek 2007; Johnson 2012, 2016). However, multidomnance still raises a number of empirical and theoretical questions, such as what constrains multidominance?, how are multidominant structures interpreted and linearized?, what are empirical limits of multidominance?
We invite abstracts for poster presentations addressing these questions or any other aspect of multidominance and its place in syntactic theory, as well as abstracts arguing for (or against) a multidominant analysis of linguistic phenomena.
Abstracts must be anonymous and should be submitted in a PDF format.
Abstracts must be no longer than two pages long including examples, tables, and references (2.5 cm margins on all sides, single line spacing, written in Times New Roman 12pt font).
A single author may submit a maximum of two abstracts; one single authored and one co-authored.
Please submit abstracts to: howmanymotherslsa@gmail.com
