----------------------------------------------------------------------
From: HAMMOND@ccit.arizona.edu

On April 12-14, l991, there will be a conference at the University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee on the topic "Word order in discourse". This will
be the 20th Annual Linguistics Symposium in Milwaukee. Papers are
invited on the question of how and to what degree differences in
constituent order are affected by discourse structure, i.e. by the
functions of clauses and their constituents in discourse. Proposals
reporting on studies relating to particular languages, studies
comparing two or more languages, and typological studies are
encouraged. Either a synchronic or a diachronic perspective may be
taken; language acquisition studies will also be considered.

Invited speakers will include BARBARA FOX, ROBERT LONGACRE, and MARIANNE
MITHUN.

ABSTRACT DEADLINE: FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 15, l990. Ten copies of one-pag,
anonymous abstracts are requested. For more information, contact
Mickey Noonan, Dept. ofEnglish, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee,
Milwaukee, WI 53201; or e-mail noonan@csd4.csd.uwm.edu.
