The establishment of language as a focus of study took place over
many centuries, and reflection on its nature emerged in relation to
very different social and cultural practices. Written by a team of
leading scholars, this volume provides an authoritative,
chronological account of the history of the study of language from
ancient times to the end of the 20th century (i.e., 'recent
history', when modern linguistics greatly expanded). Comprised of
29 chapters, it is split into 3 parts, each with an introduction
covering the larger context of interest in language, especially the
different philosophical, religious, and/or political concerns and
socio-cultural practices of the times. At the end of the volume,
there is a combined list of all references cited and a
comprehensive index of topics, languages, major figures, etc.
Comprehensive in its scope, it is an essential reference for
researchers, teachers and students alike in linguistics and related
disciplines.
