The CLILLAC-ARP research team at the University of Paris Diderot, in collaboration with the LaTTiCe (Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris 3 University, CNRS), will be holding an international linguistics conference on Tense, Aspect, Modality – Evidentiality. The conference aims to gather researchers working on TAME-E in one or more of the following research areas:
- Comparative linguistics: any typological, contrastive and/or crosslinguistic approach to an issue related to the description of TAM-E systems.
- Cognitive linguistics: research exploring links between epistemic modality, evidentiality or mirativity and mental/cognitive representations.
- Theoretical linguistics: any theoretical perspective on at least one aspect of TAM-E.
- Applied linguistics: first or second language acquisition of at least one aspect of TAM-E systems.
