orig. wrappers. Condition: Minor wear. VG. 21x14cm, vii,333 pages. Text entirely in Maltese. Etymological study of the Maltese language. [" This book, 'Word Events - Linguistic Cocktail' is a journey: our journey to search for the story after the word. And in this journey we find ourselves in lands of thought where the Maltese have never been before. And in those lands of thought we see a culture and mentality of our fathers that gives us a language that is worth its weight in gold because it shatters a screen of wisdom and wisdom in our minds. Therefore this book recognizes the importance of Maltese as an expression of the social and historical life of our islands. He understands Maltese as a means of transmission for the new generations, and as an exhibition of the history of past events and the beliefs of our ancestors. And at the same time he understands that language is also an instrument of expression of a network of social relations in today's environment. At the same time being called a 'journey' , the book is also a linguistic cocktail that offers a combination of ideas that explore the relationship between language and culture. This cocktail includes an interdisciplinary study of how language shapes communication, fosters social identity, organizes cultural beliefs and ideologies, and develops cultural representation for the social and natural environment of the Maltese Islands. Topics for this cocktail party include, among others, grammatical descriptions, etymological searches, narration of events behind words, an examination of institutionalized elements, semantic classifications, and influences on language.," -.
