Abstract:

This volume presents the Egyptian-Coptic language in cross-linguistic
(‘typological’) perspective. It is aimed at linguists of all stripes,
especially typologists, historical linguists, and specialists in
Egyptian-Coptic, Afroasiatic languages, or African languages.

Uniquely, the contributions are written by both typologists and experts of
Egyptian-Coptic and typologists. The former provide case studies dealing with
particular aspects of the various phases of the Egyptian-Coptic language
(e.g., COLLIER on conditional constructions), while the latter situate
Egyptian-Coptic data in cross-linguistic perspective (e.g., those by
GUELDEMANN and GENSLER). The volume also includes an introductory section that
includes an overview of the Egyptian-Coptic language (HASPELMATH), a sketch of
its sociohistorical setting (GROSSMAN & RICHTER), its relationship with
language typology (RICHTER), and the way in which Egyptian-Coptic data should
be presented to nonspecialists, focusing on transliteration and glossing
(GROSSMAN & HASPELMATH).

This is the first book to bring together language typology and the
Egyptian-Coptic language in an explicit fashion.
