The Routledge Handbook of North American Languages: Routledge Handbooks in Linguistics

Editat de Daniel Siddiqi, Michael Barrie, Carrie Gillon, Jason Haugen, Eric Mathieu

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 oct 2019

The Routledge Handbook of North American Languages is a one-stop reference for linguists on those topics that come up the most frequently in the study of the languages of North America (including Mexico). This handbook compiles a list of contributors from across many different theories and at different stages of their careers, all of whom are well-known experts in North American languages. The volume comprises two distinct parts: the first surveys some of the phenomena most frequently discussed in the study of North American languages, and the second surveys some of the most frequently discussed language families of North America. The consistent goal of each contribution is to couch the content of the chapter in contemporary theory so that the information is maximally relevant and accessible for a wide range of audiences, including graduate students and young new scholars, and even senior scholars who are looking for a crash course in the topics. Empirically driven chapters provide fundamental knowledge needed to participate in contemporary theoretical discussions of these languages, making this handbook an indispensable resource for linguistics scholars.

Recenzii

"This is the first handbook to focus on the study of North America languages. The book features very accessible articles written by prominent experts on these languages. Anyone interested in Native American languages, or language typology in general, will no doubt find it useful to have a copy of this book on their shelves."
Alan Yu, The University of Chicago, USA.
"This volume is a treasure trove for anyone interested in the Indigenous languages of North America and their fascinating grammatical properties. The editors have assembled an impressive team of experts with contributions both on specific topics of interest––ranging from phonology and morphology to syntax and semantics––as well as chapters devoted to surveys of major language families. The handbook provides an accessible introduction to a range of typologically important phenomena, as well as discussion of current and lasting analyses from different theoretical orientations. This book will be an enormous asset to linguists from a variety of backgrounds, ranging from students to senior researchers."
Jessica Coon, McGill University, Canada.
"This handbook is an invaluable introduction and overview of　the linguistic features　of North American languages, with contributions from　leading scholars with deep areal understanding of the structures and phenomena under discussion, and the groundbreaking things they　teach us about how human language works. There is no　comparable volume; this synthesizes the literature and lays out　the state of the art for students and senior scholars alike in an accessible yet theoretically sophisticated presentation. Highly recommended."
Heidi Harley, University of Arizona, USA.
