Learning outcomes
On successful completion of this seminar students will be able to
- understand and explain the basic concepts of Optimality Theory;
- understand scientific articles related to the topic of the seminar;
- perform simple analyses of linguistic phenomena of German in the framework of Optimality Theory;
- present the results of individual research convincingly and with appropriate presentation tools (power-point, hand-outs, final papers etc.)
Program
Linguistic theories aim to construct models of our human language competence. In this seminar one of these models, Optimality Theory, is presented and discussed in detail. Optimality theory is a modern linguistic theory, which has influenced many fields of linguistics, from phonology, to syntax, to language acquisition. In this seminar, the OT literature with respect to linguistic phenomena of German and Italian is discussed and students will work out simple analyses in this framework.
