Announcing STUDIES IN CONSTRAINT-BASED LEXICALISM We are happy to announce that CSLI Publications has agreed to publish a new series, entitled STUDIES IN CONSTRAINT-BASED LEXICALISM (with Andreas Kathol, Jean-Pierre Koenig, and Sam Mchombo as the series editors). The purpose of the series is to produce representative, high-quality selections of papers or monographs in various areas of interest to those working in or on grammatical frameworks characterizable as constraint-based lexicalism. The primary focus will be current linguistic, foundational, and computational work in the frameworks of Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG), Lexical Functional Grammar (LFG), and related frameworks such as Construction Grammar and Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar. * * * * * Announcement from the HPSG editor/Call for Papers As for the publication of HPSG-related work, the series intends to, on a yearly basis, include one volume consisting primarily of work presented at the annual HPSG conference. However, the book editors may also draw on material presented elsewhere, if appropriate to achieve thematic cohesion. Moreover, anthologies of work unrelated to the HPSG conference are also invited. In all cases the selection of eligible papers by the editor(s) will be based on a review process. In addition, this series is also intended as a forum for the publication of monographs on topics in the areas mentioned above. At this point, I'd like to solicit: - unpublished work presented at one of the last three HPSG conferences (in Copenhagen, Tuebingen, and Marseilles) which you like to have considered for inclusion in the first volume due out early next year. Submitted papers should not exceed 15 pages (20-25 in the case of invited conference talks); - proposals for volumes in the series, which contain information pertaining to the following: - title (monograph) or thematic focus (anthology), - set of potential contributors (anthology), - a rough time frame for submission, reviewing, revising and the final version; (I will assume that proposals for anthologies imply the willingness to serve as the book's editor) NB, participants of this year's HPSG conference (HPSG 4) at Cornell University will automatically be invited to submit their papers for inclusion in the first forthcoming collection. More details will be announced later. --Andreas Kathol
