Subject: Intro to Bibliography
I just picked up a wonderful document: The syllabus to G. Thomas Tanselle's
course "Introduction to Bibliography" which he teaches at Columbia. If you
are familiar with Tanselle's work, then you know that this is not merely
technical listings, but also a path to various others disciplines, such as
textual editing. It's 100 pages long, single-spaced, double-sided (imagine
giving that to your one-semester class!), and filled with all sorts of
information.
It is available for $15 (postpaid) from:
Book Arts Press
Columbia University
School of Library Service
516 Butler Library
New York, NY 10027
Enjoy.

Subject: texts for women and language course
A while back there was some discussion of texts to use in courses about
women's language. Could whoever received the suggestions summarize them
for us?
Also, may I add to the suggestions some books by Deborah Cameron:
(as editor) _The Feminist Critique of Language_ Routledge 1990 [this just
received a rave review in the Spring 1991 _Verbatim_; it's apparently a
wide-ranging collection of readings]
_Feminism and Linguistic Theory_ St Martin 1987 [a very clear summary of the
work people have been doing, I am told; a second edition may be out now]
(with J. Coates) _Women in Their Speech Communities_ Longman 1989.
