This innovative handbook takes a fresh look at the currently
underestimated linguistic diversity of Africa, the continent with
the largest number of languages in the world. It covers the major
domains of linguistics, offering both a representative picture of
Africa's linguistic landscape as well as new and at times
unconventional perspectives. The focus is not so much on
exhaustiveness as on the fruitful relationship between African and
general linguistics and the contributions the two domains can make
to each other. This volume is thus intended for readers with a
specific interest in African languages and also for students and
scholars within the greater discipline of linguistics.
