Conversion History

Syntactic Typology: Studies in the Phenomenology of Language, originally published in 1978 and reprinted in 1981, was scanned and converted to XML/HTML by the University of Texas Library in early 2006. The output was subsequently revised, corrected, and segmented by this editor, who wrote software to further process the resulting HTML files -- creating additional indices and this page layout including the Table of Contents in the left margin. Invisible "metadata" has been added to enhance classification by web search engines, hence discovery by readers such as you. The content of this online version is otherwise substantially the same as that of the original 1978 book, save for this Editor's Note, and a few textual changes originated or sanctioned by the book editor. Mention of errata is welcome; the webmaster's address for comments appears at the bottom of every page.
