[Lingtyp] Teaching Linguistic Typology: Experiences with Canonical Typology?

[Juergen Bohnemeyer]

Dear Erich and Tom – I teach typology primarily as a methods course, based mostly on primary readings and handbook articles. I’m attaching my current syllabus. I do discuss Canonical Typology as one of the approaches to the etic grid problem (on the current syllabus, that’s Week 10 Day 1).

HTH! – Juergen

Dear all,

We would like your help - just a minute - in shaping a volume which we hope will be of use to you. At the Surrey Morphology Group, we’re preparing an edited volume/reader of papers set within the framework of Canonical Typology. We’re keen to make the volume as useful as possible for both research and the teaching of typology, and so we are interested to learn about your experiences in teaching linguistic typology generally, and specifically if you have incorporated Canonical Typology, or papers that use it, in your teaching.

We hope you will be able to respond, even briefly. We’ll make good use of your responses in putting the volume together.

Responses can be made to the list or directly to Prof. Erich Round (e.round at surrey.ac<mailto:e.round at surrey.ac>.uk) / Dr Tom Ennever (t.ennever at surrey.ac<mailto:t.ennever at surrey.ac>.uk).

All the best,
Erich & Tom.
