For Roy Harris, the fundamental problem about linguistics is that it has been led astray by the fact that we are capable intellectually of 'decontextualising' our own verbal behaviour. A whole interlocking system of doctrines about forms, meanings and communication has arisen designed to support the idea that one particular kind of decontextualising analysis is a prerequisite for, rather than a retrospective reflection on, that behaviour. Against this, in 13 essays collected here for the first time, Harris argues for a fresh start, which recognises that we create language 'as we go', both as individuals and as communities, just as we create our social structures, forms of artistic expression, moral values, and everything else we call civilisation. If Harris's thought can be put in a nutshell, it is that all utterances (whether written or spoken) have to appear in a context, and that context is an integral part of the utterance. There is no such thing as a contextless utterance.

Автор: Georgine Ayoub, Название: The foundations of Arabic linguistics III : the development of a tradition: continuity and change ISBN: 9004363467 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004363465 Издательство: Brill Рейтинг: Цена: 124850.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: All contributions deal with the reception of theories in the Arabic grammatical tradition from the time of Sibawayhi (d. end of the 8th century C.E.) to the later grammarians in the 14th century C.E.. After Sibawayhi, considerable changes in the linguistic situation took place. The language of the Arab Bedouin described by him died as a native language. Grammars also changed, even if grammarians used for the most part the data given by Sibawayhi. This volume aims to determine continuities and changes in Arabic grammars, providing a new perspective on the impact of cultural and historical developments and on the founding principles of Sibawayhi's Kitab.
Автор: Thomas Hoelbeek Название: The Evolution of Complex Spatial Expressions within the Romance Family: A Corpus-Based Study of French and Italian ISBN: 9004314571 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004314573 Издательство: Brill Цена: 146110.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: In The Evolution of Complex Spatial Expressions within the Romance Family, Thomas Hoelbeek offers a corpus-based historical study of a group of expressions in French and Italian. Applying a functional approach, he tackles adpositions containing the French noun travers or the Italian noun traverso, previously never analysed from a diachronic perspective. This study enriches our knowledge of the expressions analysed and their functioning in the past, but also in present-day French and Italian, providing diachronic observations regarding functional notions put to the test. Thomas Hoelbeek’s work also contributes to a better understanding of the grammaticalisation mechanisms of complex constructions, and shows that typologically related languages may evolve differently in their ways of representing space.
Название: Arabic in Context: Celebrating 400 years of Arabic at Leiden University. ISBN: 9004343032 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004343030 Издательство: Brill Цена: 175330.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: The writing of Arabic’s linguistic history is by definition an interdisciplinary effort, the result of collaboration between historical linguists, epigraphists, dialectologists, and historians. The present volume seeks to catalyse a dialogue between scholars in various fields who are interested in Arabic’s past and to illustrate how much there is to be gained by looking beyond the traditional sources and methods. It contains 15 innovative studies ranging from pre-Islamic epigraphy to the modern spoken dialect, and from comparative Semitics to Middle Arabic. The combination of these perspectives hopes to stand as an important methodological intervention, encouraging a shift in the way Arabic’s linguistic history is written.

Описание: The lack of direct evidence about language evolution makes it notoriously difficult to study. The Windows Approach gleans indirect evidence about it from phenomena such as fossil skulls, prehistoric shell-beads, homesign systems, pidgin languages and motherese. Botha elucidates, analyses and appraises this approach in detail.

Автор: Pieter Seuren Название: Saussure and Sechehaye: Myth and Genius: A Study in the History of Linguistics and the Foundations of Language ISBN: 9004378146 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004378148 Издательство: Brill Цена: 154080.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: In this book, Pieter Seuren argues that Ferdinand de Saussure has been grossly overestimated over the past century, while his junior colleague Albert Sechehaye has been undeservedly ignored. Saussure was anything but the great innovator he is generally believed to be. Sechehaye was a genius providing many trenchant analyses and anticipating many modern insights. The lives and works of both men are discussed in detail and they are placed in the cultural, intellectual and social environment of their day. Much attention is paid to the theoretical issues involved, in particular to the notion and history of structuralism, to the great subject-predicate debate that dominated linguistic theory at the time, and to questions of methodology in the theory of language.
