Abstract
We present the first results of a galaxy redshift survey, ESO Slice Project (ESP), we are accomplishing as an ESO Key--Project over about 40 square degrees in a region near the South Galactic Pole. The limiting magnitude is bJ = 19.4. Up to now 85\% of the observations has been completed and 65\% of the data has been reduced providing 2000 galaxy redshifts. We present some preliminary results concerning the large scale galaxy distribution, the luminosity function and the properties of galaxies with spectra showing prominent emission lines.
