Held at Potsdam University, November 28-30, 2001 T3 - Linguistik International N2 - Formal Slavic Linguistics is concerned with explicit description of prosody, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, information structure and language acquisition or impairments of language (aphasia) of Slavic languages within a certain theoretical framework of Principles and Parameters (Chomsky 1995 passim). But the two parts also illustrate the diversity of approaches we use in attempting to reflect the entire range of subfields within a given theoretical framework of cognitive science.

In Slavic, there have been only few approaches up to now that tried to show which tests and diagnostic criteria can confirm or reject the universal character of these phenomena. The following article tries to resolve the problem by assuming a new syntactic and semantic analysis on ergativity in Slavic including new theories within the Minimalist framework (Chomsky 1995, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001ab). Keywords: Unaccusativity, Ergativity, Unergativity; Conflation, Argument Structure; UTAH, Aspectual Mapping Hypothesis, Visibility Condition, Case Assignment, Theta-Theory, Burzio's Generalization, Morphosyntax, Distributed Morphology, Late Insertion, Representation Theory.
