Dear Shumin,
<div>Welcome to the group. You can download the handout from the talk:</div>
<div><a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/uxh711yxyarktm8/Nivison%201992%20On%20modal%20qi.pdf?dl=0">https://www.dropbox.com/s/uxh711yxyarktm8/Nivison%201992%20On%20modal%20qi.pdf?dl=0</a></div>
<div>At that time there was a long-running debate mainly between Nivison and David Keightley about the nature of 其 in the OBI inscriptions. This talk was part of it. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All the best,</div>
<div>Randy</div>

That is the citation given in Sagart (1999) The Roots of Old Chinese. But the same paper appears as
<span style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);display:inline !important">“</span>Modal qi in Shang and early Zhou Chinese<span style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);display:inline !important">”</span> in the bibliography of the ICSTLL available online.</div>

I could not find any publication information of those earlier ICSTLL except for a few on WorldCat. Nor could I find the above paper published later elsewhere e.g. in another journal. </div>

I am an amateur who is interested in linguistics, so I could not contact anyone in the field to ask for access of the article. Your help is appreciated! </div>
