Cyclicity comments
Post comments on the readings for Tues. Oct.25th here.
Halle (1986) on the Morphology-Phonology interface
I just came across this unpublished ms. by Halle that Tobias Scheer seems to have preserved for posterity. It’s a very nice discussion of the (non-)connection between affixes’ cyclic status and the level at which they are added.
Update: See Cole’s (1995) Handbook of Phonology article on Cyclicity for an overview of subsequent analyses of Diyari and Vedic Sanskrit, as well as other useful related material.

More DEEs
I just came across some potentially useful materials on DEEs. Burzio’s Companion chapter, and a recent handout by Inkelas (which explicitly discusses the relation between morpheme-specific phonology and DEEs).
