Abstract:

This book showcases the latest research from the world’s leading
experts on Celtic linguistics. The 15 chapters span a variety of
linguistic subdisciplines as well as theoretical and methodological
perspectives. Together, these articles highlight critical aspects of
contemporary inquiry into the linguistic systems of Breton, Cornish,
Irish, Manx, Scottish Gaelic, Welsh and their ancestor languages.
The volume is organized around four key sub-areas:
(1) Syntax and Semantics
(2) Phonology and Phonetics
(3) Language Change, Historical Linguistics and Grammaticalization
(4) Sociolinguistics and Language Documentation
The volume's papers offer detailed investigations of current
theoretical issues in Celtic syntax, semantics, phonology, and
phonetics, as well as of language policy and ideology, language
weaponization, and diachronic and synchronic language change. These
state-of-the-art contributions represent the impressive diversity of
the field of Celtic linguistics and emphasize the wide body of work
being conducted in the language communities of the six Celtic nations.
