Abstract:

Few issues in the history of the language sciences have been an object of as
much discussion and controversy as linguistic categories. The eleven articles
included in this volume tackle the issue of categories from a wide range of
perspectives and with different foci, in the context of the current debate on
the nature and methodology of the research on comparative concepts –
particularly, the relation between the categories needed to describe languages
and those needed to compare languages. While the first six papers deal with
general theoretical questions, the following five confront specific issues in
the domain of language analysis arising from the application of categories.
The volume will appeal to a very broad readership: advanced students and
scholars in any field of linguistics, but also specialists in the philosophy
of language, and scholars interested in the cognitive aspects of language from
different subfields (neurolinguistics, cognitive sciences, psycholinguistics,
anthropology).
