Abstract
We consider two-dimensional supergravity theories with four supercharges co nstructed from compactification of Type II string theory on a generic Calab i-Yau four-fold. In type IIA and type IIB cases, respectively, new superspa ce formulations of N = (2, 2) and N = (0, 4) dilaton supergravities are fou nd and their coupling to matter multiplets is discussed.
