SUMMARY:Properties and Optionality in Syntax and S
 emantics, Utrecht University
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20120213
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20120214
LOCATION:Utrecht University
DESCRIPTION:The variety of optionality and modific
 ation phenomena, and their intricate relations wit
 h intensional properties, lead to some hard puzzle
 s about syntax and semantics. This workshop will e
 xamine, from the perspectives of formal syntax and
  semantics and the formal philosophy of intensiona
 l properties, a few of these questions:    1. Shou
 ld there be a unified grammatical framework for an
 alyzing phenomena of optionality?  2. Is there sti
 ll a role for intensional properties in accounting
  for optionality effects?  3. How precise and eleg
 ant are current hypotheses about optionality in na
 tural language grammar?  For more information, see
