From Formal Linguistic Theory to the Art of Historical Editions

The Multifaceted Dimensions of Romance Linguistics. Edited by Natascha Pomino, Eva-Maria Remberger and Julia Zwink. [Dedicated to Guido Mensching].

Romance is a fertile ground for linguistic research. Instead of limiting their studies to one specialised area, some Romance scholars have managed to combine different aspects of the broad field of Romance linguistics in an impressive way. This volume is dedicated to the multifaceted research interests of Guido Mensching and is divided into four parts: Part 1 focusses on different aspects of the architecture of grammar and linguistic theory and covers Italian, Portuguese, French, Sardinian and Romance in general. The focus of Part 2 is on historical linguistics, discussing Old Occitan lexicography and Romance in Hebrew and Arabic scripts. Part 3 is dedicated to aspects relating to plurilingualism, language contact and sociolinguistics. And, finally, Part 4 explores two research arguments that go beyond Romance philology but are nonetheless intertwined with it. - From the Table of Contents: Natascha Pomino/Eva-Maria Remberger/Julia Zwink: Dimensions of Romance Linguistics. -- PART 1: The architecture of grammar and linguistic theory. 1.1 ROMANCE.
