Abstract:

The Meaning of Language illustrates the diversity of approaches in
linguistics. The volume revolves around two main chapters authored by two
internationally acknowledged Scandinavian scholars, Hans Basbøll and Stig
Eliasson. Basbøll’s contribution is the most detailed and coherent
English-language presentation of the pioneering Danish 18th century linguist
Jens Pedersen Høysgaard and his work, and Eliasson explores the intricacy of
the issue of whether morphology can be borrowed between languages and the
mechanisms of actual borrowings. The other contributions illustrate which
topics may be taken up by language scholars today, from metaphor, regional
phonology, morphology and syntax, language learning, discourse analysis,
intensifier semantics, and Indo-European, to the interface between language
and logic. The approaches invoke a wide spectrum of theoretical models and
assumptions.
