Many thanks to those who replied to my query regarding cataphora corpora, it
was very kind and I appreciate your help. I am currently in my final year at
the University of Wolverhampton and am doing a dissertation about cataphora
occurences with Prof.Ruslan Mitkov as my supervisor. I work within the
Computational Linguistics Research Group and here is a brief outline of what
I was advised in the replies to my query :

1. Izumi Tanaka kindly sent me a file of cataphora examples as used in his
thesis "The Value of an Annotated Corpus in The Investigation of Anaphoric
Pronouns, with Particular Reference to Backwards Anaphora in English".

2. Dr. Simon Botley kindly advised me that I might be interested in the
UCREL home page in Lancaster, which details a project which annotated corpus
texts for anaphoric features, including cataphora :

3.Lastly,(but not leastly !) Sven Hartrumpf kindly advised me that he has
some German newspaper articles marked up with coreference
information.

Kind regards,
Lisa Jones.
