Kurzbeschreibung / / short description
Interest in the encoding of evaluative meanings has significantly increased in recent years, both in theoretical and in computationally oriented research. Much recent research in formal linguistics (particularly in semantics and syntax) has turned towards topics such as evaluativity, subjectivity, and expressivity. In parallel, computational linguistics has given rise to fields such as sentiment analysis, which explicitly aim at investigating evaluative phenomena computationally. This workshop aims to address current issues in the investigation of evaluativity within formal linguistics and to allow for cross-fertilization with computational linguistic research.
