*** INVITATION TO SUBMIT ABSTRACTS OR PAPERS ***

Discussion Group on Computer Studies in Language & Literature

Modern Language Association Convention, Dec. 27-30, 1990

Chicago, Illinois

TOPIC:
"Quantitative Methods in Language and Literature Studies:

Uses & Abuses"

Two or three discussions of intelligent, successful case studies,
methodological and/or strategic applications of quantitative thinking
in language or literature studies will be featured in this program.
At least one other study will, we hope, focus on a significant
misapplication or error in the use of quantitative methods or,
alternatively, outline and illustrate the theoretical and applied pros
and cons of computers and quantitative methods in language and literature
studies.

The Executive Committee will tend to favor the work of colleagues
who state that they will not read more than 50% of their presentation.

Please mail or e-mail a 1,000-word abstract or a paper (5-8 pages,
double-spaced) as well as a list of any anticipated equipment needs by
March 15, 1990, to:

status by April 9th.
