Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating realm of American linguistics, tracing its evolution from the practical need to document and analyze indigenous languages to the emergence of a distinct American school of linguistic thought. The author explores the pivotal shift from deduction-based approaches, often reliant on Latin as a model, to an inductive methodology championed by Franz Boas and his contemporaries. This new approach emphasized understanding each language on its own terms, unraveling its internal logic and structure without preconceived notions. The narrative follows the trajectory of American linguistics through the contributions of influential figures like Edward Sapir and Leonard Bloomfield, who, despite their contrasting personalities and approaches, propelled the field beyond the Boassian paradigm. Sapir's intuitive insights and Bloomfield's rigorous structuralism laid the groundwork for further advancements in linguistic theory and analysis. The book also delves into key concepts such as the phoneme, the arbitrary nature of linguistic signs, and the interplay between language and thought. By examining the development of American linguistics and its core principles, this book offers valuable insights into the intricate workings of human language and its profound impact on our understanding of the world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282456665_0
