Product Description<br>
In this volume, <strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">Germen de Haan</span></strong> gives
a multi-faceted view of the <strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">syntax,
sociolinguistics, and phonology</span></strong> of West-Frisian. The
author discusses distinct aspects of the syntax of verbs in Frisian: finiteness
and Verb Second, embedded root phenomena, the verbal complex, verbal
complementation, and complementizer agreement. Because Frisian has minority
language status and is of interest to sociolinguists, the author reviews the
linguistic changes in Frisian under the influence of the dominant Dutch
language and, more generally, reflects on how to deal with contact-induced
change in grammar. Finally, in three phonological articles, the author
discusses nasalization in Frisian, the putatively symmetrical vowel inventory
of Frisian, and the variation between schwa + sonorant consonants and syllabic
sonorant consonants.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Mm, a bit steep, that price.
I have done courses in Frisian Linguistics both with Visser and Hoekstra (the
latter is now professor in Frisian at Kiel),</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;">and I have read both their
doctoral theses. Probably I will know most of this material....</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;">But still, it's good that
this material (before mostly available in Frisian) will now be become available
to a wider public!</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">Thanks for the
wonderful evocative story. We share memories. I was a bit older when I visited
for the first time – five years of war having robbed me of an earIier
opportunity. The magic of the place was still there however. I remember sitting
with my back against one of those huge boulders and thinking: how could it be
that our forebears who had such direct contact with the living and the dead
world around them, would have let themselves be robbed or their religion for
one that puts people in hell!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">Another thing
to try, next time in the Netherlands,
is to make a pilgrimage – if you will – along all those enormous churches built
by the seafarers all along our shores and which are now standing empty in the
landscape or are used for all kinds human endeavors. And if you do, do not
forget the big church on the dike in Veere (Z) . Constructed partly for the
worship of God, but mostly in honor of the local bigwigs. It comes completely
with a wooden gutter system that empties into a large cistern behind the church
where the local wool merchants could wash the fleece of the sheep grazing
on the dike, prior to selling them in England. Construction started in
the 1320<sup>th</sup>. The entire history of the town and the country has
left memories in this building. From greatness to almost ruins and back up
again. The joy is that now it is a concert hall and a museum. It is quite the
adventure to play tourist and walk thru the church while members of the
Concertgebouw Orchestra are rehearsing for “tonight’s concert”. You can find
the story of the church at <a href="http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grote_Kerk_%28Veere%29" target="_blank">http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grote_Kerk_%28Veere%29</a>.</span><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span></p>
