reintroduce.01: To my mind, "reintroduce" takes two almost-symmetrical arguments; that is, if arg1 is reintroduced to arg2, logically arg2 is reintroduced to arg1 as well. Further, there are complicated figure-ground and intentionality relations to worry about also. To AVOID all of that, take a purely *syntactic* approach to the arg1/arg2 distinction: arg2 is reintroduced by "to".

Roles:

        Arg0: entity making reintroduction
        Arg1: entity being reintroduced
        Arg2: entity being reintroduced TO

Example: without arg2

        Mr. Stoltzman reintroduced his colleagues.

        Arg0: Mr. Stoltzman
        Rel: reintroduced
        Arg1: his colleagues

Example: with arg2

        John reintroduced Mary to the pleasures of chocolate ice cream.

        Arg0: John
        Rel: reintroduced
        Arg1: Mary
        Arg2: to the pleasures of chocolate ice cream

Roleset id: reintroduce.02 , implement, begin, bring up, vncls: , framnet:

reintroduce.02: In WSJ this sense seems to be more common. Especially when the "medium" argument is present, the two senses are very close in meaning, at least to my mind.

Roles:

        Arg0: implementer, agent
        Arg1: thing being brought up
        Arg2: medium, where arg1 is brought up into

Example: advertising

        Newsweek will reintroduce a new incentive plan for advertisers.

        Arg0: Newsweek
        Argm-MOD: will
        Rel: reintroduce
        Arg1: a new incentive plan for advertisers

Example: with medium

        The man with the clipboard reintroduced a bit of les sportif into our
        itinerary.

        Arg0: The man with the clipboard
        Rel: reintroduced
        Arg1: a bit of les sportif
        Arg2: into our itinerary.
