Day 1: ‘flavors’ of v<\/em>, \u00a0causation and ‘teleological capability’<\/b><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
I present some background work by me and Folli to situate the context in which we came to the object drop problem, looking first at the evidence for different types of v with different selectional properties (or perhaps for different interpretations of v in different structural contexts) and then at the idea that the ‘Agent’ role associated with vDO<\/sub>\u00a0is not associated with animacy or intentionality, but only with what Higginbotham 1997 dubbed ‘teleological capability.’ I may touch on the notions of ‘ballistic’ vs ‘entraining’ causation in recent work with Copley.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Day 2: Do roots select arguments?<\/strong><\/div>\n
I present some of my past work on verb roots, argument structure and event structure, with particular attention to whether or not roots select and compose with internal arguments, paying special attention to the structural source of ‘Incremental Theme’-style \u00a0derivations of telicity via homomorphic mapping.\u00a0<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
