Abstract:

This book, a reprint of one of the classics of historical linguistics,
contains five papers originally presented at a 1966 symposium at the
University of Texas at Austin. The individual contributions cover a broad
range of topics, from Ferdinand de Saussure’s influence on historical
linguistics to the connection between inflectional paradigms and sound change
to language change in contemporary linguistic communities. Each of the
contributions has had a sizable effect on the development of linguistics; the
final paper, by Uriel Weinreich, Marvin Herzog, and William Labov, for
instance, laid the foundation for contemporary historical sociolinguistics.
The volume has long been out of print; this new edition will make it
accessible to a new generation of linguists.

This edition contains a preface by Hans Boas and Marc Pierce (University of
Texas at Austin).
