Reseña del libro "Actes du Xxiv Congrès International de Linguistique et de Philologie Romanes. Tome Iii: 3 (en Francés)"
The published proceedings of the latest triennial conference of the Sociéeacute;té de Linguistique Romane (and the first to have been held in Britain), under the presidency of Güuuml;nter Holtus, contain c. 200 papers by eminent specialists from nearly thirty countries around the world, arranged in fourteen sections: 1. Romance linguistics and linguistic theory, 2. Philology and the new media: textual editions, corpus linguistics, linguistic analysis by computer, 3. Romania nova, 4. Linguistic policies in Romania minor, 5. Language of early texts (from the origins to the eighteenth century), 6. Anglo-Norman, 7. Late Latin, 8. Sociolinguistics, 9. Grammaticography, 10. Text linguistics and pragmatics, 11. Lexicology and lexicography, 12. Regional variation in national languages and vernacular dialects, 13. Derivational morphology, 14. Grammar and toponymy. These are accompanied by three plenary papers (M. Maiden, E. Ridruejo, L. Renzi) and by two Round Table discussions on bibliographical questions. The papers offer a panorama of both novel and traditional themes of Romance linguistics and provide an important up-to-date survey of current work in the field as well as extensive bibliographical information and details of work in progress. All papers are in Romance languages (French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian).
