Unpublished Ph.D. thesis by H.G. Widdowson, Department of Linguistics, University of Edinburgh, May 1973
On the occasion of H. G. Widdowson's 70th birthday, this Ph.D. thesis available to download here makes a classic linguistic text accessible to a wider public for the first time and meets a demand frequently expressed by students and scholars alike. It is hoped that this edition will make more widely known just how far advanced H. G. Widdowson's early thinking was on many of the topics developed in his later work.
