The science of language evolution appeared at the end of the last
century but topically belongs to language origins - the domain of
investigation that is concerned with the beginnings and
diversification of language. Language evolution as a research area
contrasts with the antiquity of language origins, which can be
traced back to the earliest forms of traditional reflection.
Language evolution emphasises its scientific orientation, whereas
throughout most of its history language origins constituted a
complex mixture of mythology, philosophy of language, as well as
religiously and scientifically inspired speculation. This work is
the first book-long attempt to document the whole history of
language origins and situate language evolution in this wide
intellectual context.
