To highlight some aspects of empirical linguistics, a conference was organized in 1978 at University of Alberta, at which six prominent scholars were invited to present substantial contributions. These papers are included in this volume, together with an epilogue summing up and discussing the recurrent themes of the conference, and a general bibliography. 410 0$aAmsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.$nSeries IV,$pCurrent issues in linguistic theory ;$v10. 606 $aLinguistics, Experimental$vCongresses 615 0$aLinguistics, Experimental 676 $a410 701 $aPrideaux$b Gary Dean$0652351 712 12$aUniversity of Alberta Conference on Experimental Linguistics 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781851503321 996 $aPerspectives in experimental linguistics$93861472 997 $aUNINA
