Originating from papers presented at an international colloquium, the 18 articles in this volume reflect the different aspects of modality: general, lexical, temporal and modal. There is no one single definition or methodological approach to the study of modality. This is borne out by the range of these articles, with perspectives extending from different manifestation forms of modality to its different implications or values (alethic, deontic, epistemic, radical, etc.) and from modality in specific genres to contrastive and historical perspectives on the phenomenon.

The Deonomasticon Italicum provides a systematic historical treatment of, and commentary on, the lexemes of Italian derived from proper names. It covers both derivations from geographical names (including those from ethnic roots, which are of especial interest both for the history of vocabulary and for cultural history) and from the names of persons. The first part of the Dictionary (4 volumes) is devoted to derivations from geographical names, the second (2 volumes) to the names of persons. The Deonomasticon Italicum will be published in complete volumes and no longer in the form of single fascicles. Key features: Desiderat in der Lexikographie des Italienischen Insgesamt 6 B nde (1 Band alle 3 Jahre) Breite Quellengrundlage auch zeitgen ssischer Texte Indices und regelm ig aktualisierte Bibliographie online (http: //romanistik.phil.uni-sb.de/schweickard/images/suppbibdi/supplementobibliografico.pdf)

A concise but unusually comprehensive handbook for the student of old French, which assumes no knowledge of modern French.

Lexicology is about words, their meanings and the relationships between them, their origins and their structure. It combines the study of derivational morphology with lexical semantics. This textbook explores the history, meanings and structure of words, the way they are collected in dictionaries and the way they are stored in our minds. It goes beyond examining the morphological structure of words to examine the way words are spelt and the way they sound. At every stage, the book focuses not only on description, but also on the puzzles that words present. Supported by numerous examples, exercises, discussion questions, suggestions for further reading and a glossary, this is an accessible and lively guide to the linguistic study of English through the consideration of words.

Dr Wright’s translation of Caspari’s Arabic Grammar first appeared in 1859. Since that time it has been thoroughly revised and enlarged, and has become the standard authority. Volume I contains sections on orthography and pronunciation, on the verb, the noun and adjective, on numerals, prepositions, adverbs and conjunctions. Volume II deals with syntax and prosody.

Proceeding from a reference-semantic approach, the study develops a concept of deixis allowing a clear distinction between discourse deixis and anaphora. Discourse deixis needs to be regarded as a specific form of temporal deixis invariably containing a metacommunicative element. The metacommunicative component in discourse deixis is expressed above all by the verbs. Temporal deictic reference is based on the interaction between lexical aspect classes and other temporal expressions, not only deictic ones such as tense, but also non-deictic features like grammatical aspect and others - like adverbs - which can be both deictic and non-deictic.

Causal clauses with because, since, as and for display differing syntactic properties. The study demonstrates that these differences correspond with certain meanings of reason and cause specified in the course of the book. To this end the syntactic analyses are supplemented by speech act-theoretical and language-analytic studies; also, philosophical theories and models of the conceptual field 'causality - explanation - substantiation' are drawn on. The LOB corpus provides the material for examples and underlies the text-typological inquiry into the occurrence of the causal clauses in question.

As an outgrowth of relational grammar, it constitutes a theoretical alternative to the long-dominant generative transformational approach to linguistics. In this work, David Johnson and Paul Postal offer the first comprehensive presentation of this theoretical framework, which provides entirely new notions of all the basic concepts of grammatical theory: sentence, language, rule, and grammar.
