Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Hardcover, viii + 545 pages, NOT ex-library. Fine condition, book is clean and bright throughout with firm binding and unmarked text; free of inscriptions and stamps. Issued without a dust jacket. Shipping weight over 1kg. -- This collection addresses the theory and practice of quantifying linguistic variance, situated at the nexus of traditional comparative inquiry and modern, data-intensive computational methods. The volume is organized into two distinct but interrelated sections. The first, "Case studies," demonstrates the broad applicability of quantitative measurements across diverse linguistic domains and research questions. These chapters apply distance-based metrics to core problems in genetic classification and subgrouping for language families such as Arawakan, Dravidian, and Tibeto-Kanauri, and investigate the placement of divergent branches within Indo-European. Beyond genealogy, these methods are extended to predict second-language acquisition difficulty, analyze socially motivated pronunciation differences in dialectometry, and examine the diachronic stability of specific semantic domains like body part terminology in Athapaskan languages. The second section, "Methods and tools," delves into the technical and theoretical underpinnings of these measurements. It surveys a range of methodologies, from established algorithms like Levenshtein distance and phylogenetic inference to novel approaches using parallel texts for morphosemantic comparison, network analysis of bilingual dictionaries, and information-theoretic modeling of sound change. This section also offers critical perspectives, evaluating the shortcomings of "black-box" techniques, the impact of feature dependencies in typological databases, and the importance of semantic control in calculating aggregated lexical distances. The volume also introduces key data resources, such as the Intercontinental Dictionary Series, arguing for a move beyond short word lists. Ultimately, this collection serves not just as a survey of current practices but as a call for greater methodological rigor, advocating for the development of robust evaluation standards to advance a more cohesive field of computational comparative linguistics. -- Contents: Introduction - The Why and How of Measuring Linguistic Differences; Case Studies - Contrasting Linguistics and Archaeology in the Matrix Model: GIS and Cluster Analysis of the Arawakan Languages / G.

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 556 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS is a series of books that open new perspectives in our understanding of language. The series publishes state-of-the-art work on core areas of linguistics across theoretical frameworks, as well as studies that provide new insights by approaching language from an interdisciplinary perspective. TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS considers itself a forum for cutting-edge research based on solid empirical data on language in its various manifestations, including sign languages. It regards linguistic variation in its synchronic and diachronic dimensions as well as in its social contexts as important sources of insight for a better understanding of the design of linguistic systems and the ecology and evolution of language. TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS publishes monographs and outstanding dissertations as well as edited volumes, which provide the opportunity to address controversial topics from different empirical and theoretical viewpoints. High quality standards are ensured through anonymous reviewing. To discuss your book idea or submit a proposal, please contact Birgit Sievert.
