I have just sent out a final draft of my paper critiquing Porter’s model of prominence and grounding. I had expected to present it at SBL, but the topic was rejected. The same one was submitted to ETS, about which I have not yet heard back. Pending feedback from colleagues, I will submit the paper for publication in early June, shifting attention to Porter’s view of markedness. There was too much content for one paper.
For those of you in the PNW that might be interested in attending the discourse workshop June 7-9, there should be some good news coming out next week!
Is there any type of distance/online Greek discourse workshop in the works?
We are planning on video-taping the discourse workshop, which provides an overview of the content in my grammar. Logos will announce this week that it is now FREE for anyone interested enough to have read the book. I will begin work on supplemental materials for each chapter available on the web some time this summer, but it will be a morning/weekends thing. We may put a video or two up as promo, but not the whole course (about 25 hours).
