Abstract:

Contrastive Linguistics is an expanding field, as witnessed by the publication
in recent years of an increasing number of monographs, collected volumes and
journal articles. The present volume, which comprises an introduction and ten
chapters dealing with lexical contrasts between English and other languages,
shows advances within the well-established lexical work in the field. Each of
the chapters takes lexical items as its starting point and compares English
with one or more languages. The languages represented are Spanish, Lithuanian,
Swedish, German, Norwegian and Czech. Furthermore, they emphasise the link
between lexis and grammar, not only within the same language, but also across
languages. Finally, several studies represent one of the more recent
developments of contrastive linguistics, namely a growing focus on genre and
register comparisons. The book should appeal to both established scholars and
advanced students with an interest in lexis, genre, corpus linguistics and/or
contrastive linguistics.
