Prague Linguistic Circle Papers Volume 1.
Travaux du cercle linguistique de Prague nouvelle serie.
O.LESKA, E. HAJICOVA, M. CERVENKA and P. SGALL (eds)
The volume is the first one of the revived series of Travaux, which
was the well-known international book series of the classical Prague
Linguistic Circle, published in the years 1929-39. The tradition of
the Circle still attracts attention in broad circles of European and
American linguistics. The first volume of the new series is divided
into five sections: 1. Introductory papers characterizing the
development of the Prague School in the recent decades;
2. Methodological issues of structural and functional linguistics,
3. Sentence structure, 4. Discourse patterns, 5. Theory of
literature. In accordance with the tradition, the volume contains
contributions concerning issues of principle, empirical linguistic
studies, and also papers from the theory of literature. Contributions
by: Werner Abraham; Ed Battistella; Frantisek Cermak; Frantisek Danes;
W.U. Dressler and Jasna Makovecerne; Libuse Duskova; Eva Hajicova;

Prague Linguistic Circle Papers Volume 2.
Travaux du cercle linguistique de Prague nouvelle serie.
Eva HAJICOV=C1, OLDRICH LE=8AKA, PETR SGALL and MENA SKOUMALOV=C1 (eds.)
Volume 2 of Prague Linguistic Circle Papers together with Volume 1 of
the series, constitutes a single whole, reviving the classical series
of Travaux du Cercle linguistique de Prague which was of great
importance in the development of European structural linguistics In
the 1930s. In the present volume, nine Czech and eight non-Czech
linguists present new ideas in various domains --from basic properties
of the system of language to discourse types and to history of
linguistics in the 20th century. Also discussed are fundamental issues
of structural linguistics, quantitative linguistics, sentence and
discourse patterns, phonology, graphemics and the lexicon.
