Book Description
Das Handbuch der Eurolinguistik stellt die neue Disziplin kompakt, umfassend und in all ihren Verzweigungen von 1991 bis 2008 dar. Es besteht aus 45 thematischen Artikeln, die von 41 Spezialisten verfasst wurden. Block I Raum Europa behandelt die Besonderheit Europas und seiner kulturellen Identität, seine Binnenräume und das Grenzproblem im Osten und Südosten. Block II Die Sprachen in Europa stellt die gesamte Sprachenlandschaft Europas und ihre externe Linguistik dar, die einzelnen Sprachfamilien, die Bedeutung des Lateins für Europa und in einem Exkurs das Baskische. Block III Areal Europa beschreibt die linguistic area Europe, präsentiert die Ergebnisse der Kontakt- und Sprachtypologie (Projekt Eurotyp) und beschreibt den vorherrschenden Sprachtypus in den vier großen Arealen Westeuropa, Zentraleuropa, Balkan und Russland. Block IV Die linguistischen Ebenen fasst die Eigenschaften und Gemeinsamkeiten der europäischen Sprachen zusammen, von der phonetischen über die lexikalische Ebene (Internationalismen; Anglizismen) bis hin zu einem pragmatisch-interaktiven Code der Europäer. Block V Sprachpolitik und Mehrsprachigkeit behandelt Sprache und Politik in Europa und stellt die wichtigsten Mehrsprachigkeitskonzepte und -projekte vor.

European Regions and Boundaries
Author: Diana Mishkova
Publisher: Berghahn Books
ISBN: 1785335855
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 409
Book Description
It is difficult to speak about Europe today without reference to its constitutive regions—supra-national geographical designations such as “Scandinavia,” “Eastern Europe,” and “the Balkans.” Such formulations are so ubiquitous that they are frequently treated as empirical realities rather than a series of shifting, overlapping, and historically constructed concepts. This volume is the first to provide a synthetic account of these concepts and the historical and intellectual contexts in which they emerged. Bringing together prominent international scholars from across multiple disciplines, it systematically and comprehensively explores how such “meso-regions” have been conceptualized throughout modern European history.

The Languages and Linguistics of Europe
Author: Bernd Kortmann
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter
ISBN: 3110220261
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 934
Book Description
Open publicationThe Languages and Linguistics of Europe: A Comprehensive Guide is part of the multi-volume reference work on the languages and linguistics of the continents of the world. The book supplies profiles of the language families of Europe, including the sign languages. It also discusses the areal typology, paying attention to the Standard Average European, Balkan, Baltic and Mediterranean convergence areas. Separate chapters deal with the old and new minority languages and with non-standard varieties. A major focus is language politics and policies, including discussions of the special status of English, the relation between language and the church, language and the school, and standardization. The history of European linguistics is another focus as is the history of multilingual European 'empires' and their dissolution. The volume is especially geared towards a graduate and advanced undergraduate readership. It has been designed such that it can be used, as a whole or in parts, as a textbook, the first of its kind, for graduate programmes with a focus on the linguistic (and linguistics) landscape of Europe.

Russian Peasant Letters
Author: Olga Tsuneko Yokoyama
Publisher: Otto Harrassowitz Verlag
ISBN: 9783447061483
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Around 1880, two teenagers left their village on the Kama river, 1000 km east of Moscow. Their father wanted them to earn cash in Siberia and send it home. The result: scores of letters over a period of 16 years (1881-1896). The parents, two brothers and a sister reported on harvests and family finances, on marriages, births, and deaths, asked for money, offered religious instruction and moral advice, described their daily lives, and shared their worries about their alcoholic father and their desire to see the world and succeed in it. Meanwhile, the family's activity steadily expanded, as their side business grew from a single leaky rowboat to a fleet of steamships. These unique letters, preserved in a Siberian archive, appear here in English translation for the first time. The accompanying detailed commentaries, based on meticulous archival research, recreate these peasants' social, cultural, and economic milieu. The family's letters thus document the complex changes that led to upward mobility in an era that saw the rapid growth of capitalism and urbanization during late imperial Russia. Facsimiles and photographs are included.

The Sound Structure of Modern Irish
Author: Raymond Hickey
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110369036
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
The Sound Structure of Modern Irish contains a comprehensive description of the phonology of Irish. Based on the main forms of the language, it offers an analysis of the segments and the processes in its sound system. Each section begins with a description of the area of phonology which is the subject - such as stress patterns, phonotactics, epenthesis or metathesis - and then proceeds to consider the special aspects of this subject from a theoretical and typological perspective. The book pays particular attention to key processes in the sound system of modern Irish. The two most important of these are palatalisation and initial mutation, phenomena which are central to Irish and the analysis of which has consequences for general phonological theory. The other main emphasis in the book is on a typological comparison of several different languages, all of which show palatalisation and/or initial mutation as part of their systems. The different forms of Celtic, Slavic languages, Romance dialects and languages along with languages such as Finnish, Fula, Nivkh and Southern Paiute are considered to find out how processes which are phonetic in origin (external sandhi) can become functionalised and integrated into the morphosyntactic system of a language.

Language, Normativity and Europeanisation
Author: Heiko Motschenbacher
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 113756301X
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
This book focuses on linguistic practices of identity construction in a popular culture media context, the Eurovision Song Contest. Subscribing to a normativity-based approach to critical discourse analysis, it studies Europeanisation as it surfaces at the discursive interface of European, national and sexual identities in Eurovision lyrics and performances. Research in critical discourse analysis that deals with Europeanisation, or the discursive work involved in European identity formation, has so far mainly studied data from EU political contexts that illustrate a top-down approach to what Europeanness means. The present book complements this earlier research in several ways, focusing on the linguistic construction of identities, and its interrelation with non-linguistic modes of signification in the Eurovision Song Contest. Discursive mechanisms that prove to be central for the normative shifts of Europeanisation in the given context are de-essentialisation, inclusion, camp, crossing and languaging.
