Abstract:
Reduplication has long been considered a "typical" feature of Pidgins
and Creoles but a serious study of this phenomenon has never
previously been undertaken. This book aims to provide descriptions of
reduplicative processes in almost three dozen languages which emerged
out of contact situations: approximately 25 Creole languages, 8
Pidgins, and Afrikaans. The volume is entirely devoted to
reduplications which can be considered morphological, relating a
reduplicated form to a synchronically existing or historically
attested unreduplicated base. The selection of papers and the emphasis
on description assures coverage of relevant languages of different
geographical and lexical stock. Several contributors consider the
question of the historical emergence of morphological reduplication in
relation to the presence or absence of similar processes in the
languages out of which contact the pertinent languages arose. A number
of contributions further address the semantic analysis of
reduplications, or the theoretical implications of reduplications
attested in the languages under consideration for a theory of
phonological form.
