A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Why does language change? Why can we speak to and understand our parents but have trouble reading Shakespeare? Why is Chaucer's English of the 14th century so different from the modern English of the late 20th century that the two are essentially different languages? Why are Americans and English "one people divided by a common language"? Therefore, can the language of Chaucer and modern English - modern British and American English - still be called the same language? This book provides answers to questions like these in a straightforward way, aimed at the non-specialist.

Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

Diese Einf�hrung in die faszinierende Thematik von Sprachwandel und -verwandschaft betrachtet nicht allein den historischen Wandel von Sprachen, sondern zeigt zugleich, wie unser Verst�ndnis von Sprachwandel es erlaubt, das Schicksal sowohl einzelner Worte als auch ganzer Sprachen in ihrer Geschichte nachzuzeichnen; wie sich erkl�ren l��t, da� so verschiedene Sprachen wie Englisch, Deutsch, Latein oder auch Hindi und Bengali miteinander verwandt sind; oder ob es m�glich ist, einen Nachweis f�r die Verwandtschaft aller Sprachen zu erbringen.
Das Buch richtet sich an Leser ohne linguistische Vorkenntnisse und enth�lt eine Vielzahl von veranschaulichenden Beispielen aus bekannten wie exotischen Sprachen.
