  • Workshop: Possessive Relations: Interpretation, Syntax and Argument
    Workshop: Possessive relations: interpretation, syntax and argument structure University of Stuttgart Call deadline: 16-August-2017 Possession is a semantic relation holding between two referents: the possessor and the pos- sessee. A marker/construction is said to express possession relation if it can minimally express ownership of some object by a person. However, morphosyntactic means used to code ownership such as English have usually express many more related meanings (possession sensu lato) such as part-whole, kinship, location, experiencer/beneficiary, attributive or social relations (inter alia, Belvin 1996). Alongside with this versatility in meaning there is also significant variation in the morphosyntactic means that code possession. E.g., languages vary as to whether they employ the intransitive presentational/existential strategy (BE type) with no dedicated lexical verb or the transitive strategy with a special possession verb (HAVE type) for the predicative possession (cf. Stassen 2013); there is even more variation with internal possession: genitive case/adpositions, possessive agreement indexes, zero, etc. (cf. Aikhenvald & Dixon 2013; Börjars et al. 2013; Jacob 2003). Finally, other constructions have been claimed to involve possession: different kinds of external-possessor constructions (EPC), e.g., the “possessor promotion to dative”, the locative EPC, restrictive-topic or applicative con- structions, etc. (cf. Payne & Barshi 1999; Lee-Schoenefeld 2006; Pylkkänen 2008). The workshop aims at bringing together linguists working on possession from different angles and with different theoretical persuasions. Topics on any aspect of possession such as the following ones are welcome: Interpretation: To what extent can the particular interpretation be derived from the meaning of the parts and how much is determined by pragmatic reasoning and context (e.g., Vikner & Jensen 2002; Seržant 2016)? Syntax: Are subtypes of possession associated with different structures or are they derived from one underlying locative structure (Boneh & Sichel 2010 vs.
