In the past two decades, there has been a notable increase in publications addressing reduplication, largely due to the evolution of generative grammar. Reduplication serves as an ideal testing ground for theories advocating a non-segmental approach to phonology and morphology. Discussions often revolve around a limited set of data, which invites alternative analyses aimed at fostering new theoretical advancements. This volume, stemming from a conference on reduplication at the University of Graz, Austria, presents a comprehensive examination of the phenomenon from various theoretical perspectives, emphasizing its phenomenology. Esteemed authors explore formal and functional aspects, typological features, semantics, comparative issues, and the role of reduplication in language acquisition, including the learning of reduplicative systems. The work also delves into sign languages, creoles, and pidgins, alongside general grammatical and cognitive principles. Additionally, it features specific studies on diverse languages and language families, including Uto-Aztecan, Salish, Tupi-Guarani, Moroccan and Cairene Arabic, various African languages, Chinese, Turkish, and Indo-European languages from India. The conference aimed to elevate the discourse surrounding reduplication across different theories and fields of study.
