This volume is the first one of the revived series of "Travaux," which was the well-known international book series of the classical Prague Linguistic Circle, published in the years 1929-39. The tradition of the Circle still attracts attention in broad circles of European and American linguistics. The first volume of the new series is divided into five sections: 1. Introductory papers characterizing the development of the Prague School in the recent decades; 2. Methodological issues of structural and functional linguistics; 3. Sentence structure; 4. Discourse patterns; 5. Theory of literature. In accordance with the tradition, the volume contains contributions concerning issues of principle, empirical linguistic studies, and also papers from the theory of literature.

Fundamental issues of structural linguistics are discussed by C.H. van Schooneveld and F. Cermák, those of quantitative linguistics by M. Teitelová, of sentence structure by H.-H. Lieb, Y. Tobin, J. Panevová, T. Gross and J. abrula, discourse patterns are dealt with by J. Hoffmannová, S. Cmejrková and F. ticha, phonology and graphemics by E. Battistella, A. Svoboda and P.A. Luelsdorff with S.V. Chesnokov, and the lexicon by L. Waugh and V. Straková.
