>
> ISLP99 will bring together researchers (not only linguists) who are
>interested in contemporary problems related to
>language, communication, and culture, to seek a better insight into the
>various issues related to politeness in language. The
>symposium aims at promoting awareness of these issues and at
>facilitating original research from various perspectives and
>disciplines.
> After the First and Second Calls for Papers, we received an impressive
>number of paper proposals from various
>countries. These proposals had been screened by the Program Committee on
>the basis of originality, quality, and relevance
>to the theme of the symposium.
> We urge that contributors and potential participants register within 30
>September 1999. This will help us better
>organize the symposium.
> Thank you for your interest. We look forward to meeting you in December
>and hope that ISLP99 will lead to more co-
>operation and research networks in the future.
