Keywords:
Language contact - the linguistic and social outcomes of two or more languages coming into contact with each other - has been pervasive in human history. However, where histories of language contact are comparable, experiences of migrant populations have been only similar, not identical. Given this, how does language contact work? With contributions from an international team of scholars, this Handbook - the first in a two-volume set - delves into this question from multiple perspectives and provides state-of-the-art research on population movement and language contact and change. It begins with an overview of how language contact as a research area has evolved since the late 19th century. The chapters then cover various processes and theoretical issues associated with population movement and language contact worldwide. It is essential reading for anybody interested in the dynamics of social interactions in diverse contact settings and how the changing ecologies influence the linguistic outcomes.

With contributions from a global team of scholars, this two-volume Handbook represents the state-of-the-art in the field of language contact. Focusing on population movement and language change, this first volume is ideal for anybody interested in how people behave linguistically in new ecologies arising from population movement and contact.

Recenzijas

'In this two-volume Cambridge handbook, Mufwene and Escobar have assembled four dozen novel studies on linguistic change, as induced or conditioned by migration, language contact, multilingualism and population structure. This hefty new reference work provides an important resource on language change in the living context of human societies.' George van Driem, Chair of Historical Linguistics, University of Bern 'What a treasure! - two volumes, 47 chapters, written by the foremost authorities, dazzling in the depth and breadth of its coverage of all aspects of language contact. A truly monumental contribution, destined to be the go-to reference for decades to come.' Lyle Campbell, University of Hawai'i, Mnoa 'With its global scope and inclusive approach, this work offers the most comprehensive overview of language contact to date. With contributions from leading specialists in each topic and region under the leadership of Mufwene and Escobar, the Handbook provides authoritative and state-of-the-art coverage of a vibrant and rapidly evolving field.' Stephen Matthews, University of Hong Kong 'Impressive.' Maggie Scott, The Year's Work in English Studies

Salikoko S. Mufwene is the Edward Carson Waller Distinguished Service Professor of Linguistics at the University of Chicago. His current research is on the phylogenetic emergence and speciation of languages, and on language vitality. His books include The Ecology of Language Evolution (Cambridge, 2001), Iberian Imperialism and Language Evolution in Latin America (2014), and Bridging Linguistics and Economics (Cambridge, 2020). He is the founding editor of Cambridge Approaches to Language Contact. Anna Marķa Escobar is Professor Emerita at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Through the study of grammatical change, her work focuses on the emergence of contact-induced linguistic outcomes and minoritized Spanish varieties. Her long-term project focuses on the making of Andean Spanish, with colonial and post-colonial corpora.
