Dear colleagues,

This is just very, very advanced notice that I’ll be giving my inaugural lecture as Prof. of German and History of Linguistics on Tuesday December 1st, 5.30 or 6pm start (venue tbc). The title will be  “Language Learning, History and the Germans”. I’d be delighted if anyone can make it, at the end of a long day near the end of semester... And there will be wine at the end.

Please do pass this on to anyone else who might be interested.

Best wishes,

Nicola
