Description
The International Congress of Linguists is the largest and most prestigious international conference of academic linguists, and is held every five years. ICL XVI took place in Paris, 20-27 July 1997, attracting 1,400 participants. Sessions covered the whole range of linguistic subdisciplines: history, philosophy, typology, language policies, socio-, psycho-neurolinguistics, language acquisition, phonetics, morphology, syntax, semantics, lexicology, pragmatics, historical linguistics, computational linguistics, sign language, etc. This CD presents the proceedings of the conference, including reports from the round table sessions.
