A graduate student in my "Academic and Workplace Genres" course is interested in exploring inventory (as it exists in retail) and the social situation to which it responds. She asked me if I could recommend any studies of "retail genres" for her to read and build on. I would greatly appreciate suggestions of any publications that may help my student. -- _____________________________________ Natasha Artemeva, President, CATTW/ACPRTS School of Linguistics and Applied Language Studies Carleton University 1125 Colonel By Drive Ottawa, Ontario K1S 5B6 Tel.+1 (613) 520-2600 ext.7452 Fax +1 (613) 520-6641 E-mail: [log in to unmask] http://www.carleton.ca/~nartemev/index.html -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- To leave the list, send a SIGNOFF CASLL command to [log in to unmask] or, if you experience difficulties, write to Russ Hunt at [log in to unmask] For the list archives and information about the organization, the annual conference, and publications, go to the Inkshed Web site at http://www.StThomasU.ca/inkshed/ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
