Abstract
Just over 50 years ago Paul Diderichsen proposed what was to become a very influential analysis of word order in Danish, cf. Diderichsen (1946). His model was a topographical one. It defines the relative ordering of all major slots or positions within a clause that are of relevance for word order, and thereby orders the items of an arbitrary sentence based on whatever slots that sentence happens to instantiate. Two more recent, detailed exponents of this tradition are Hansen (1990) and Allan, Holmes and Lundskær-Nielsen (1995) (abbreviated here as AHL 1995).
