In this talk, I explore the implications of a sparer UG. I suggest how extended projections might emerge from the primary data, given certain assumptions about the LAD. I suggest that these assumptions give a more satisfying understanding of mixed projections (Abney 1987) and some other phenomena than do the standard assumptions about extended projections.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker: Peter Svenonius (University of Troms\u00f8) Title: Emergent Extended Projections Time: Friday, November 4th, 2016, 3:30-5:00pm Venue: 32-155 Abstract: The theory of extended projections (Grimshaw 2005) is built on a strongly universalist\/innatist premise, especially in its cartographic implementation (Cinque 1999 inter alios).
