John Benjamins Publishing Company launches two online research tools
in pragmatics

HANDBOOK OF PRAGMATICS ONLINE

Editors Jan-Ola Estman & Jef Verschueren
Co-editors Jan Blommaert (1995-2002), Chris Bulcaen (1996-2002)
IPrA Research Center (International Pragmatics Association)

The Handbook of Pragmatics Online consists of
-  topical articles (from anaphora and bilingualism to codeswitching,
cohesion, discourse markers, implicitness, mass media, negation,
social institutions, and terms of address);
-  brief biographies of eminent scholars (such as Austin, Buhler,
Grice, Morris, Sapir);
-  research traditions that belong or have contributed to pragmatics
(from accommodation theory, analytical philosophy and anthropological
linguistics, to cognitive linguistics, construction grammar,
conversation analysis, discourse analysis, literary pragmatics,
neurolinguistics, psycholinguistics, relevance theory,
sociolinguistics, speech act theory, and universal and transcendental
pragmatics, to name just a few)
-  research methods (from contrastive analysis and corpus anlysis to
ethnography, experimentation, logical analysis, statistics, and
taxonomy);
- notational systems (from formal semantics to transcription systems
for spoken discourse).  The Handbook of Pragmatics Online incorporates
all information from Jef Verschueren, Jan-Ola Estman, Jan Blommaert &
Chris Bulcaen, 1995-2002, Handbook of Pragmatics (Manual &
Installments). This first version is basically the electronic form of
that printed Handbook. Future online versions will add further
entries, and will include updates, rewritings andextensive revisions
of already available entries.

BIBLIOGRAPHY OF PRAGMATICS ONLINE

Editors Frank Brisard, Michael Meeuwis & Jef Verschueren
IPrA Research Center (International Pragmatics Association)

The Bibliography of Pragmatics Online is an annotated bibliography of
the field of linguistic pragmatics. It is a flexible research
instrument with an online user interface. Annotations, keywords, and
hyperlinked relations between publications (reviews, articles from
collections, translations) make this a powerful tool. The first
release of the Bibliography combines the data from the older --
printed -- bibliography (up to 1985) with publications from the period
1997-2001. Annual updates will then gradually bridge the remaining gap
while providing relevant new data as well.

Both are made available on subscription basis, either separately, or
in a combined, discounted, subscription. For more information, and to
