This is firstly a response to a query from a colleague in Holland whose mail
unfortunately went down the tubes. It may also be useful to others who
want to try out the interface to UPSID which I posted recently.

CALL FOR PAPERS

The journal "Rivista di Linguistica"
now at its third year of life, invites linguists from any subdomain of the disc
ipline to contribute papers on any subject of linguistic interest. Although the
 title of the journal is Italian, most papers are published in English, as you
may have realized if you have seen an issue of the journal. Besides English, pa
pers in any of the major European languages are accepted in principle.
Some issues of the journal are monothematic: so far, an issue on "Anaphoric Rel
ations in Sentence and Text", edited by M-E. Conte, has appeared; an issue on t
he "Morphology of Compounding", edited by S. Scalise, is due to appear within a
 few months. Proposals for editing monothematic issues are of course welcome, a
nd will be subjected to editorial approval.
Sample copies of the journal (and summaries of the first issues) may be obtaine
d from the publisher: Rosenberg & Sellier, via Andrea Doria 14, I-10123 Torino.
