Content-Length: 2450 A few people answered my question about I. Mel'cuk 1976 reference, so I thought a summary of the references I gathered might interest the Linguistlist as a whole. First, I wish to thank the people that answered me : (in order of appearance) Lars Borin David Beck Ariadna Solovyova Claude Coulombe Lonz (only reference I got on that person, from the electronic address. Sorry) Miquel Aguado Keith Goeringer Claude Boisson Some directed me to Pr Mel'cuk, who is teaching at Montreal university.
