Outline
The overall goal of the Thermi International Summer School in
Linguistics is to promote current research in the major areas of
theoretical linguistics and make it available to young researchers
from around the world. To that end, a number of advanced courses on
selected topics are organised under the auspices of GLOW. Previous
GLOW summer schools were held in Salzburg, Austria, in 1979, 1982 and
1985, in Girona, Catalonia/Spain, in 1990, 1992, 1994 and 1996, and in
Olomouc, Czech Republic, in 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1997.

Patras. It will be held at a conference centre in Thermi, a small
