A Festschrift for Werner Winter on the Occasion of his 80th Birthday (2003) Message-ID: ----------------------------Original message---------------------------- A new publication from MOUTON DE GRUYTER! >From the Series TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS. STUDIES AND MONOGRAPHS Series Editors: Walter Bisang and Hans Henrich Hock LANGUAGE IN TIME AND SPACE A Festschrift for Werner Winter on the Occasion of his 80th Birthday Edited by Brigitte L. M. Bauer and Georges-Jean Pinault 2003. xxv, 443 pages. Cloth. Euro 148.00 / sFr 237.00 / approx. US$ 163.00 ISBN 3-11-017648-3 (Trends in Linguistics. Studies and Monographs 144) The honoree of this Festschrift has for many years now marked modern trends in diachronic and synchronic linguistics by his own publications and by stimulating those of numerous others. This collection of articles presents data-oriented studies that integrate modern and traditional approaches in the field, thus reflecting the honoree's contribution to contemporary linguistics. The articles relate to comparative data from (early) Indo-European languages and a variety of other languages and discuss the theoretical implications of phenomena such as linguistic universals, reconstruction, and language classification. Brigitte L.M. Bauer is Professor at the University of Texas at Austin. Georges-Jean Pinault is Professor at the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes, Paris.

With Ana Deumert (Monash, Australia), I have just published a comparative volume on the standardization history of all Germanic languages (with Benjamins). You will find the 'promo flyer' in attachment. I am not sure whether HistLing actually publishes book announcements. Not wanting to break the house rules, I prefer to ask you first whether an announcement could be made on the list and/or if a review of the book can be published?
