Introduction to new "Schools of Linguistics"
Geoffrey Sampson
January 2022 

am working on a new, up-to-date edition of my textbook Schools of Linguistics, first published in 1980 and translated into several languages. I have already placed a draft replacement for what was chapter 1 on lingbuzz, under the title “Linguistics begins: the biological paradigm”; here is a draft of a largely new introductory chapter, which is largely about how the constraints on all scholarship have changed since 1980. As always, any comments would be very gratefully received at my e-mail address sampson@cantab.net, and the eventual published book will acknowledge any such help I use.
