First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Oversized hardcover, 326 pages, NOT ex-library. Book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Minor handling wear only; short creases to the spine ends. Issued without a dust jacket. -- A collection of twelve scholarly articles exploring the linguistic evolution and diversity of the Maltese language. It shifts the focus from purely historical accounts to a contemporary linguistic analysis of how the language varies across different social and geographic contexts. Key Themes and Research Areas: The volume is divided into sections that address the lexicon, morphology, syntax, and phonology of Maltese through several lenses: - Social and Age-Based Variation [investigates whether distinct sociolects exist among the younger generation and examines the linguistic impact of Internet chatting]; - Geographic and Dialectal Diversity [features studies on regional varieties, specifically comparing dialects like Xlukkajr (southern Malta) and Naduri (Gozo)]; - Functional and Structural Issues [analyzes technical linguistic features such as clitics, the causative-inchoative alternation, and the use of the "possessive relative clause"]; - Modern Contexts [explores "technolects" and the specific variety of Maltese used within European Union institutions]; - Literary and Historical Perspective [includes linguistic analyses of major Maltese literary figures and the conscious efforts to standardize a "harbour/city" variety to gain prestige over rural dialects]. The book serves as a foundational text for general linguistics, proving that Maltese - with its unique blend of Semitic roots and Romance/English influences - offers a rich case study for understanding how languages adapt to social, political, and spatial changes.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The aim of the volume is to contribute towards a better understanding of inflectional morphology, as well as to provide a platform for researchers to discuss their results in the light of the particular framework they have chosen to work in. The first paper provides an overview of the main controversies within the area of inflection. Other papers deal with general aspects such as the difference between derivation and inflection, irregular verb inflection, animacy, and clitics. These are followed by studies on functional categories, the acquisition of inflection, a formal implementation of Russian verb inflection, and finally articles that deal specifically with aspects of German inflection.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The twelve contributions to this collection of articles focus on variation and change in the lexicon, morphology, syntax and phonology of Maltese. Various aspects of lectal variation are addressed: the properties of sociolects, technolects, regional varieties, and different registers of present-day Maltese are discussed. On-going changes are looked at in several of the papers. The questions of whether or not there is a typical Maltese EU-variety or a distinct sociolect spoken by the younger generation are raised. Not all of the phenomena which attest variation can be ascribed to the sociolinguistic sphere. Morpho-syntactic issues like the definition of clitics, the causative-inchoative alternation and the employment of the possessive relative clause are linked more closely to structural and functional factors. Suprasegmental issues like the use of pauses in spoken Maltese and the syllable structure of Maltese are scrutinized as well. These topics are complemented by dialectological studies, investigations of the pragmatics of Maltese and the description of literary Maltese. The range of topics covered in this collection proves that it is worth the while studying Maltese from the perspective of general linguistics.; Die zwölf Beiträge zu diesem Sammelband legen das Augenmerk auf Variation und Wandel in Lexikon, Morphologie, Syntax und Phonologie des Maltesischen. Verschiede Aspekte der lektalen Variation werden angesprochen: Die Eigenschaften von Soziolekten, Fachsprachen, regionalen Varietäten und verschiedenen Registern des heutigen Maltesischen werden diskutiert. In mehreren der Artikel werden gegenwärtig ablaufende Veränderungen beleuchtet. Dabei wird die Frage gestellt, ob eine typische EU-Varietät des Maltesischen oder eine eigenständige maltesische Jugendsprache besteht. Nicht alle Phänomene, die mit Variation verbunden sind, lassen sich der soziolinguistischen Sphäre zuordnen. Morphosyntaktische Probleme wie die Definition von Klitika, die Kausativ-Inchoativ-Alternation und der Gebrauch des possessivischen Relativsatzes hängen stärker mit strukturellen und funktionalen Faktoren zusammen. Suprasegmentalia wie die Pausen im gesprochenen Maltesischen und die Silbenstruktur des Maltesischen werden ebenfalls untersucht. Ergänzt werden diese Themen durch Arbeiten zur Dialektologie, Pragmatik und zum literarischen Maltesischen. Die Bandbreite der Themen, die von diesem Sammelband abgedeckt werden, zeigt, dass es sich lohnt, das Maltesische aus dem Blickwinkel der Allgemeinen Sprachwissenschaft zu erforschen.
