Reviewing Linguistic Thought

The papers in this volume focus on the interaction of different levels of linguistic analysis (syntax, semantics, pragmatics) and the interfaces between them, on the convergence of different theoretical models in explaining linguistic phenomena, and on recent interdisciplinary approaches to linguistic analysis. The selected works, including papers by renowned scholars, highlight the necessity for the study of language to be paired with the study of cognition and for linguistics to develop more substantive links to other disciplines, bringing forward the converging trends which originate within different theoretical frameworks. The volume is of particular relevance to scholars and students who are interested in an in-depth overview of 20th century linguistics outside or beyond the generative paradigm, and in exploring the development of 20th centuryinfluence on current work.
