This handbook comprises an in-depth presentation of the state of
the art in word-formation. The five volumes contain 207 articles
written by leading international scholars. The XVI chapters of the
handbook provide the reader, in both general articles and
individual studies, with a wide variety of perspectives:
word-formation as a linguistic discipline (history of science,
theoretical concepts), units and processes in word-formation, rules
and restrictions, semantics and pragmatics, foreign word-formation,
language planning and purism, historical word-formation,
word-formation in language acquisition and aphasia, word-formation
and language use, tools in word-formation research. The final
chapter comprises 74 portraits of word-formation in the individual
languages of Europe and offers an innovative perspective. These
portraits afford the first overview of this kind and will prove
useful for future typological research. This handbook will provide
an essential reference for both advanced students and researchers
in word-formation and related fields within linguistics.
