Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The seminar will treat recent developments in PIE morphology; in particular the PIE root and its function in the grammatical system of PIE, nominal word classes and nominal derivation. We will read recent papers on these subjects and collect further material to discuss and reassess the respective viewpoints. Depending on the interest of the auditory, we can change our emphasis, but at least the PIE root, root nouns and the Caland System will be a case in point.

Assessment and permitted materials

All papers have to read and summarized in advance of the class, at least two further research questions based on them have to be formulated; apart from that, every student is required to conduct a collection of material on one of the discussed topics and present the results in class. Active engagement in the discussion in class is also expected.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

In order to pass the seminar, students have at the very least to conduct one material collection (60%); 10% of the mark depend on class activity, further 30% on the paper summaries.

Examination topics

There is no exam, students are required to attend and successfully do the class work as outlined above.

Reading list

Literature will be distributed in class and on the Moodle plattform.
