Check 

	From Modula to Oberon
	Wirth
	Software -- Practice and Experience
	July 1988

and

	The Programming Language Oberon
	Wirth
	Software -- Practice and Experience
	July 1988

One's the intro, the other a language spec.
Further, an explanation of the primary new idea is in

	Type Extensions
	Wirth
	Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems (TOPLAS)
	April 1988

The language has been revised since the SP&E papers,
but I'm not sure if the revision has been published.

Finally, I'm a fan and will be glad to correspond.
