Essentials of Language Documentation

Beschreibung

TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS is a series of books that open new perspectives in our understanding of language. The series publishes state-of-the-art work on core areas of linguistics across theoretical frameworks, as well as studies that provide new insights by approaching language from an interdisciplinary perspective.

TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS considers itself a forum for cutting-edge research based on solid empirical data on language in its various manifestations, including sign languages. It regards linguistic variation in its synchronic and diachronic dimensions as well as in its social contexts as important sources of insight for a better understanding of the design of linguistic systems and the ecology and evolution of language.

TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS publishes monographs and outstanding dissertations as well as edited volumes, which provide the opportunity to address controversial topics from different empirical and theoretical viewpoints. High quality standards are ensured through anonymous reviewing.

"Anyone intending to go into the field to document a language should read this book thoroughly before proceeding. It will not tell them what to collect, but could save them endless intellectual frustration. It is a worthy addition to the small but growing number of books on linguistic fieldwork."Anthony P. Grant in: Journal of The Royal Anthropological Institute 14.3/2008
