The relationship of theoretical and applied linguistics has lately
prompted numer ous debates. This volume originated at one of them.
The essence of most of the chapters, of all of them except Fraser's
and Davies's, was actually presented at the Round Table on "The
Relationships of Theoretical and Applied Linguistics," organized
during the 7th World Congress of Applied Linguistics, held in Brus
sels, in August 1984. Individually and collectively the chapters
assembled here offer support to the idea that applied linguistics
should not be juxtaposed to theoretical linguistics; it is a field
of research with theoretical as well as applied aspects. Written by
different authors from a wide variety of different countries, the
chapters may at times express views that are not totally
consistent. Nevertheless, we believe that the variability of
viewpoints counts among the merits (rather than the defaults) of
this internationally written and edited volume. It is our hope that
it will prove stimulating to linguists and practitioners in related
fields and instructive to students. We wish to express our thanks
to Albert Valdman for the interest he has shown in the volume and
to record our appreciation to our editors, in particular Eliot
Werner and Declan Scully, for their tolerance and patience."
