The group will meet on Wednesdays at 12.15 in Hus 1 1.217 (Spring 2020).
*** All are welcome! ***
The reading group will be on hiatus until further notice due to the closure of the university. We have now finished the Luck List and are now moving on to reading papers that are more specifically related to Language. To participate in the discussion we strongly recommend you to look at the corresponding readings in advance. Send an email to gillian.ramchand@uit.no if you would like an electronic copy of this week’s reading.
