Inhaltsangabe

The present volume in the series Empirical Issues in Syntax and Semantics collects a curated selection of papers from the 2023 Colloque de Syntax et Sémantique à Paris (CSSP 2023), held on December 7-8, 2023, at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris. The result aims to be a snapshot of contemporary linguistic research in the areas of syntax and semantics. The eight contributions investigate phenomena spanning focus, meaning, modification, and discourse, offering new insights into how grammatical structures encode and convey information, and illustrating how detailed empirical work informs our understanding of grammatical phenomena. Drawing on data from multiple languages and employing diverse analytical frameworks, these studies advance current debates while maintaining the methodological rigor characteristic of contemporary formal linguistics. The collection provides a valuable resource for researchers and graduate students working in syntax, semantics, and related areas.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Gabriela Bîlbîie is Associate Professor in Linguistics at the French Department of the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Literatures, University of Bucharest, working on theoretical and experimental syntax. She earned her PhD in 2011 from Université Paris Diderot – Paris 7, with a thesis devoted to the description and formalization of elliptical constructions in Romanian and French, with a focus on verbal ellipsis. Her postdoctoral research (within the French project LabEx EFL) includes, in addition to the theoretical dimension, a quantitative and experimental approach, setting up parallel experiments in several (mainly, Romance) languages to test various factors involved in ellipsis phenomena.

Gerhard Schaden is an assistant professor at the Université de Lille, currently on sabbatical at the Laboratoire de Linguistique Formelle (UMR 7110) at the CNRS. His research focuses on the semantic-pragmatics interface, linguistic change, and non-cooperative pragmatics. He has contributed to the study of perfect tenses and aspect, with more recent work addressing expressive phenomena, such as slurs. Presently, his research delves into the intersection of pragmatics and sociolinguistics, exploring meaning effects that challenge traditional boundaries between these fields.
