Route 66: From Deep Structures to Surface Meanings.
A Festschrift for Henryk Kardela on his 66-th Birthday
Its a great joy of ours that we can place the present
Festschrift in honour of our esteemed collegue and friend Henryk Kardela. When invited to
contribute, both the authors and the reviewers expressed their tacit consent to liken
Henryk's linguistic path to Route 66, a historic road of nearly 2,500 miles, spanning
Chicago in Illinois and Santa Monica in California, and exhibiting a whole array of
passing landscapes, fleeting viewes, and changing panoramas. He is no doubt one of these
language theorists that having tested and tasted newer and newer "trees" grown
at newer and newer locations, must be aware of the adventurous and travel-like nature of
linguistics. To quote Professor Elżbieta Tabakowska (this volume): "Professor
Kardela, of Henryk to his friends and collegues, has come a long way since he first delved
into generative syntax. Later, like many other linguistics of his generation and
persuasion. he became attracted by the emerging cognitivist theory of language, which
promised illuminating insights into the lush greenery growing behind the walls of
generative orchards planted with derivation trees".
