Hansen Erik W.
The Synchronic Fallacy: Historic Investigations With a Theory of History
Denmark: Odense University Press 2001. Book. New. Paperback. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. The Synchronic Fallacy introduces a postmodern attitude into the science of language. In accordance with its own Critico-Philological Method the essay is a constructive critique of the transcendent foundationalism of modern synchronic linguistics. Without falling into nihilistic pitfalls of the postmodern mind's antifoundationalism the author demonstrates both how the static essentialism of modern linguistics turns out to be a transcendent metaphysical statement of only a section of the everyday language and how the synchronicity of modern linguistics cannot deliver on its promises to produce empirically relevant and non-shortening descriptions of the dynamic existence of the everyday language. Rehabilitating the Erkenntnisswert of the non-transcendent use of the everyday language - a project with Glossematic 'Hermeneutical' and 'Deconstructivist' overtones - the Synchronic Fallacy presents an argument against the modern synchronization of historical linguistics and demonstrates the possibility of constructing a historical theory through the introduction of the Existential Function of the everyday language as an implementation of man's temporally structured mind our historical sense. The essay's critical analyses of the four conceptual pillars of modern static linguistics -system structure state synchrony - evolve a determination of the temporal-dynamic nature of structure/Structuralism so that the essay's view of our tradition's purported antinomy: 'structure and history' dovetails with the advanced view of language: language change is not to be seen or observed but comprehended.

Booij Geert.; Marle Jaap Van
Yearbook of Morphology 2002
London: Kluwer Academic Publishers 2003. Book. Very Good. Cloth/Laminated Boards. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. A revival of interest in morphology has occurred during recent years. "The Yearbook of Morphology" series published since 1988 has proven to be an eminent support for this upswing of morphological research since it contains articles on topics which are central in the current theoretical debates which are frequently referred to. In the "Yearbook of Morphology 2002" a number of articles is devoted to the morphology of a variety of pidgin and creole languages which appear to have much more morphology than traditionally assumed. A second topic of this volume is the morphological use of truncation for the coinage of proper names in Germanic and Romance languages in particular endearment forms with highly interesting consequences for the theory of phonology-morphology interaction. Thirdly this volume contains articles on how affixes are combined and ordered in complex words and the complex linguistic principles behind these orderings. 324pp.N.B.Base of spine slightly marked.

Yearbook of Morphology 1999
London: Kluwer Academic Publishers 2001. Book. Like New. Cloth/Laminated Boards. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. The Yearbook of Morphology series published since 1988 has proven to be an eminent support for an upswing of morphological research since it contains articles on topics which are central in the theoretical debates which are frequently referred to. "The Yearbook of Morphology 1999" focuses on diachronic morphology and shows in a number of articles by specialists how complicated morphological systems develop in the course of time. In addition this volume deals with a number of hotly debated issues in theoretical morphology: its interaction with phonology including Optimality Theory the relation between inflection and word formation and the formal modelling of inflectional systems. A feature of this volume is an article on morphology in sign language a new area of research in linguistics. The relevant evidence comes from a wide variety of languages amongst which Germanic Romance and Slavic languages are prominent. 319pp. Kluwer Academic Publishers Hardcover

Edhina Ekogido: Names as Links the Encounter Between African and European Anthroponymic Systems Among the Ambo People in Namibia
Helsinki: Finnish Literature Society 2003. Book. New. Paperback. First Edition. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. What are the most popular names of the Ambo people in Namibia Why do so many Ambos have Finnish first names What do the African names of these people mean Why is the namesake so important in Ambo culture How did the long independence struggle affect personal naming and what are the latest name-giving trends in Namibia This study analyses the changes in the personal naming system of the Ambo people in Namibia over the last 120 years starting from the year 1883 when the first Ambos received biblical and European names at baptism. The central factors in this process were the German and South African colonisation and European missionary work on the one hand and the rise of African nationalism on the other hand. Eventually this clash between African and European naming practices led to a new and dynamic naming system which includes elements of both African and European origin. 373pp. Finnish Literature Society Paperback

General Eisenhower Ideology and Discourse Rhetoric and Public Affairs Ser.
East Lansing MI U.S.A.: Michigan State University Press 2002. Book. Like New. Cloth. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. During the Second World War Dwight D. Eisenhower formulated an ideology that encompassed deeply held ideas about human nature society and political life. From the day the war ended Eisenhower promoted this ideology; he considered the production of words as an end in itself essential to the real business of governing. During his years as Army Chief of Staff president of Columbia University Allied Commander in Europe and candidate for President of the United States Eisenhower continuously emphasised the inspirational value of the spoken word. This book reveals how one man helped construct the sense of national and global insecurity that pervaded American life for decades. 366pp. Michigan State University Press Hardcover

Reeve C. D. C. editor
Women in the Academy : Dialogues on Women Art Justice Freedom and the Forms
Indianapolis IN U.S.A.: Hackett Publishing Company Incorporated 2001. Book. Like New. Cloth. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. In the early fourth century B.C. Plato founded his famous Athenian school the Academy. Among the students who came to study there were two women Axiothea of Phlius who wore men's clothes and Lasthenia of Mantinea. In five dialogues inspired by those of Plato C. D. C. Reeve imagines these women in conversation with one another with Plato himself and with their fellow Academician Aristotle. The topics they discuss - women art justice freedom and the nature of reality - are all drawn from Plato's Republic. Their lively exchanges which quickly engage the reader are at once an exciting and accessible introduction to some of Republic's central themes and an exploration of some of the most controversial questions we face in trying to make sense of our complexly shared lives. 72pp. Hackett Publishing Company, Incorporated Hardcover
