En savoir plus sur le livre

Research on language universals and linguistic typology are complementary approaches addressing the relationship between the diversity and unity of languages. Recognizing the extent of typological divergence is essential for formulating universal laws. Recent developments highlight the need for careful analysis of a wide range of linguistically diverse languages before general theories can emerge. Typological comparison is now central to linguistic research, and the series on empirical approaches to language typology provides a platform for diverse contributions to this evolving field. Its distinctive empirical orientation ensures that conclusions are grounded in thorough studies of empirical data. General problems are examined through the lens of individual languages, families, or samples, with a particular focus on lesser-known languages that illuminate longstanding issues in general linguistics. The series welcomes contributions from various theoretical perspectives, reflecting the methodological pluralism of contemporary linguistics. All volumes are designed to be accessible to linguists and readers interested in language-related domains. A deeper understanding of human language, informed by the analysis of typological diversity, is crucial for multiple scientific disciplines, making this series essential for research libraries specializing in language and language sciences.
