Query:	Dear Members, My name is Andreas L. Katonis, I work at the University of Thessaloniki, Greece. In Greece, for academics a "redefinition" is recommended this year. This is part of a package of reforms. I have been appointed to my post to teach speech science, but in an alternating curriculum, I still have other classes, too, the matter of which corresponds to my interests. For the redefinition, I am supposed to submit a "good documentation" for a proposal. An appropriate cover term should be found. I think of something like "Comparative Philology". I would be pleased to hear your opinion. What I have studied and what I am engaged in are the following: I studied modern languages, then I graduated in Classical Philology, and made my PhD in Linguistics (Historical Phonology). Accordingly, I feel both a philologist (indeed a classicist) and a linguist. I take an interest in Ancient Greek, Latin, Theoretical, Historical and Indo-European linguistics, phonology, and to a minor extent in phonetics. Thank you, A.L. Katonis
