This volume expands on orthodox distinctions in language study to explore a wider concept of linguistic interfaces. It examines clashes between languages and politics, contact between languages, and language as influenced by cognitive and other factors.
These papers challenge the rigid division of linguistics into sub-disciplines. They probe the frontiers between semantics, pragmatics, syntax, speech, and writing, producing an eclectic, thought-provoking collection of rare originality and quality.
This collection of papers explores interfaces in language, including diachronic and synchronic approaches, generative and non-generative frameworks, as well as typological and theory-driven perspectives. The result is a truly eclectic mix.
