CALL FOR COMMENTS AND UPDATES
Humanities Computing Units and Institutional Resources
http://www.kcl.ac.uk/humanities/cch/wlm/hcu/

This is a call for updates and responses to the list of humanities
computing units and institutional resources assembled by Willard
McCarty (King's College London) and Matthew Kirschenbaum (University
of Maryland).  This list, which contains links to Web sites and brief
descriptions, aims to provoke discussion concerning the kinds of
activity currently undertaken by computing humanists.  The list is not
considered to be complete and omission of a particular unit is not
intentional; the purpose of this call is to discover and fill any such
gaps or omissions.

The list may be found at: http://www.kcl.ac.uk/humanities/cch/wlm/hcu/
and will appear in printed form in Literary and Linguistic Computing,
published by Oxford University Press, in Spring 2002. It is the
journal's intention to publish an updated list every two years.

We and the authors would be very grateful for all additions and
comments; substantial contributions will be acknowledged in the
printed version.  Please send your comments before 15th October 2001
to either of the Reviews Editors at the following email addresses:

Edward Vanhoutte <evanhout at uia.ua.ac.be>

THE SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CONSTRUCTION GRAMMAR (ICCG2)
September 6-8, 2002
Helsinki, Finland

The Second International Conference on Construction Grammar will take
place at the University of Helsinki, Finland, September 6-8, 2002.

The conference is a follow-up on the First International Conference on
Construction Grammar held in Berkeley in April 2001. In line with the
aim of the first conference, we hope that ICCG2 will continue to serve
as a forum for promoting discussion and collaboration among linguists
interested in Construction Grammar and Frame Semantics, as well as in
related constructional research in its various models and applications.

Plenary speakers include:
Hans Boas
William Croft
Charles J. Fillmore
Mirjam Fried
Adele E. Goldberg
Paul Kay
Michael Tomasello

Regular conference papers (20-min. talk plus 10-min. discussion) are
invited on any aspect of linguistic analysis that is concerned with
constructions and/or frames.  We welcome work on issues in syntax,
morphology, semantics, pragmatics, discourse, language acquisition,
corpus linguistics, language variation/change, etc.
