Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This seminar will focus on theoretical and empirical issues surrounding argument and event structure. In particular, we will work through current research on the structure of various verb classes, including unaccusatives, unergatives and so-called “psych(ological) predicates” of various sub-types, as well as nominalizations of various sorts across various languages.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

[Edited to reflect the situation due to COVID-19] Students are expected to do the readings before coming to the virtual class, come to the virtual class, participate actively by asking and answering questions, make a virtual presentation with a handout (a handout is sufficient), and write either an overview paper giving arguments for preferring a given analysis to alternatives from the literature, or a squib analyzing something having to do with the topic of the seminar.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

Students have a good command of theoretical issues in modern research on argument and event structure and their empirical foundations.
