The Cambridge Handbook of Language Contact: Volume 1: Population Movement and Language Change
Book information
Description
Language contact - the linguistic and social outcomes of two or more languages coming into contact with each other - has been pervasive in human history. However, where histories of language contact are comparable, experiences of migrant populations have been only similar, not identical. Given this, how does language contact work? With contributions from an international team of scholars, this Handbook - the first in a two-volume set - delves into this question from multiple perspectives and provides state-of-the-art research on population movement and language contact and change. It begins with an overview of how language contact as a research area has evolved since the late 19th century. The chapters then cover various processes and theoretical issues associated with population movement and language contact worldwide. It is essential reading for anybody interested in the dynamics of social interactions in diverse contact settings and how the changing ecologies influence the linguistic outcomes. 04.0_pp_vi_vi_Copyright_page 05.0_pp_vii_viii_Contents 06.0_pp_ix_x_Maps_Volume_I 07.0_pp_xi_xi_Figures_Volume_I 08.0_pp_xii_xiii_Tables_Volume_I 09.0_pp_xiv_xviii_Contributors 10.0_pp_xix_xxii_Preface 11.0_pp_1_40_Introduction 11.1_pp_3_40_Language_Contact_What_a_Rich_and_Intellectually_Stimulating_History_since_the_Late_Nineteenth_Centur 12.0_pp_41_186_Language_Contact_and_Genetic_Linguistics 12.1_pp_43_63_Language_Contact_and_Historical_Linguistics 12.2_pp_64_83_The_Chinese_Expansion_and_Language_Coexistence_in_Modern_China 12.3_pp_84_121_Tracing_Language_Contact_in_Africas_Past 12.4_pp_122_151_Populations_in_Contact_Linguistic_Archaeological_and_Genomic_Evidence_for_Indo-European_Diffusion 12.5_pp_152_186_The_Impact_of_Autochthonous_Languages_on_Bantu_Language_Variation_A_Comparative_View_on_Southern_and 13.0_pp_187_324_Linguistic_Areas 13.1_pp_189_231_The_Balkans 13.2_pp_232_260_The_Amazon_Basin_Linguistic_Areas_and_Language_Contact 13.3_pp_261_298_Migration_and_Trade_as_Drivers_of_Language_Spread_and_Contact_in_Indigenous_Latin_America 13.4_pp_299_324_Language_Contact_in_South_Asia 14.0_pp_325_424_Language_Spread 14.1_pp_327_357_The_Geographic_and_Demographic_Expansion_of_Malay 14.2_pp_358_381_Geographic_and_Demographic_Spread_of_Swahili 14.3_pp_382_424_Arabic_Language_Contact 15.0_pp_425_610_Emergence_and_Spread_of_Some_European_Languages 15.1_pp_427_458_The_Emergence_and_Evolution_of_Romance_Languages_in_Europe_and_the_Americas 15.2_pp_459_504_The_Expansion_and_Evolution_of_Portuguese 15.3_pp_505_539_French_and_English_in_Contact_in_North_America 15.4_pp_540_582_French_in_African_Contact_Settings 15.5_pp_583_610_The_Geographical_and_Demographic_Expansion_of_English 16.0_pp_611_745_Language_Diasporas 16.1_pp_613_640_Diasporas_An_Overview 16.2_pp_641_669_Labor_Migrations_Language_Change_in_Communities_and_Diasporas 16.3_pp_670_689_The_Korean_Diaspora 16.4_pp_690_715_The_Chinese_Diaspora_Language_Maintenance_and_Loss 16.5_pp_716_745_The_Diachrony_of_Yiddish_and_Judaeo-Spanish_as_Contact_Languages 17.0_pp_746_749_Author_Index 18.0_pp_750_754_Language_Index 19.0_pp_755_760_Subject_Index

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
