Narratives Workshop The motivation behind this workshop is the recognition that a significant number of Australian linguists, in particular a growing number of postgraduate students, are working on narrative. There are a number of people researching narrative in the languages of Australia and the adjacent region, and others who have general theoretical and methodological interests in this topic. The intention is for the workshop to provide a forum for those of us sharing these interests to get together and present our work in a friendly and informal atmosphere. Visit the Narratives workshop web page for full details Registration required by 1 December, 2006. |
