Eugenio Coseriu counts among the most important linguistic scholars
of the second half of the 20th century. He is known mainly as a
structuralist and a Romance linguist, but his work is in fact far
more expansive in scope, including a comprehensive linguistic
theory as well as writings on a wide range of issues, from
semantics, syntax, typology, variational linguistics, language
change, pragmatics and text linguistics to Vulgar Latin, the
history of the philosophy of language and the history of Romance
linguistics. Coseriu’s thought is founded on solid philosophical
principles, and his life brought him into contact with a number of
different academic traditions and cultures. However, for a variety
of reasons (among which, the languages in which he tended to
publish: Spanish, Italian, French and German), knowledge of his
thought is rather marginal in the Anglo-American world. This book
aims to go some way to addressing this situation by offering an
overview in English of Coseriu’s main contributions to
linguistics, and indeed to other disciplines. It is of general
interest for the study of linguistics, the history of linguistics,
and the philosophy of language, as well as for a broader reading
public.
