Open Meeting of Partee-Borschev NSF Grant Project

The semester's first Genitive of Negation grant meeting will be held on Tuesday, September 18, at 12:45 pm in the Partee Room.

From Barbara:

As in previous years, we will have a number of open meetings this semester for project participants and anyone else who is interested to discuss project research and topics that are related to the project. The project is The Russian Genitive of Negation: Integration of Lexical and Compositional Semantics, and there are many relevant issues, which need not concern Russian; see the description of the project on the website.

On the agenda of the first meeting:

  1. Volodja and I will present a draft of our paper from FASL 16 last May, which is currently under review. The title is "Russian Genitives, Non-Referentiality, and the Property-Type Hypothesis" by Borschev et al., and the current version is available here.
  2. We will discuss plans for future meetings. There will be presentations during the semester at least by Amy Rose, Annahita, Aynat, Keir, and Misato, and additional presentations by Barbara and Volodja. We would be glad to have volunteers for additional presentations. This can be an additional venue for practice talks, for instance. Let Barbara know if you'd like to present something.

[Thanks Aynat and Barbara!]
