Ian Catford’s Life in Linguistics
[ Via LINGUIST List. ]
“The Catford Tapes are a series of eight one-hour lectures given by Ian Catford in early 1985, on the occasion of his retirement from the University of Michigan Linguistics Department. For anyone with an interest in linguistics, from theoretical to applied, from English to Kabardian, from grammar to phonetics, from Henry Sweet to … well, to Ian Catford, these lectures make clear just how fascinating and remarkably broad Professor Catford’s life in linguistics has been.”
Videos of the lectures are hosted by Deep Blue, the UM’s service providing access to work in research and teaching:
