FYI : HIL dissertations available on-line The Holland Institute of Generative Linguistics (HIL) was established in order to promote research and to professionalize the training of graduate students in the field of generative linguistics. HIL was established as a result of increasing collaboration among theoretical linguists at Leiden University, the University of Amsterdam and the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. The focus of inquiry in HIL is on theoretical research in the fields of syntax, semantics, phonology and morphology. The HIL Dissertations series currently contains twenty-seven titles. These dissertations are published by Holland Academic Graphics, The Hague (http://www.hag.nl). HAG has made available PDF-versions of several HIL dissertations. These can be viewed from http://www.leidenuniv.nl/hil/various/disss/dissert.htm or follow the links from http://www.leidenuniv.nl/hil I am sending this on behalf of Fran Karttunen, who is temporarily cu off from her e-mail; all responses should go to her, at the address given at the bottom of the announcement, not to me.
