Annotation

The present volume, originally prepared to celebrate Jan Firbas' 80th birthday, unfortunately is presented only belatedly, to commemorate one of the most outstanding personalities of functional and structural linguistics. Its contributors have been inspired by Firbas' analysis of functional sentence perspective and of many other aspects of sentence and discourse.
