Diese Festschrift wurde dem Sprachwissenschaftler Winfried Boeder
(Universitat Oldernburg) zu seinem 65. Geburtstag von seinen
Freunden, Kollegen und Schulern zugeeignet. Dem vielseitigen, recht
unterschiedliche Aspekte naturlicher Sprachen berucksichtigenden
Werk des Jubilars entsprechend, umfasst der Band Studien zu drei
verschiedenen, doch miteinander verbundenen Bereichen: zur
Philologie (einschlieBlich sprachkultureller Aspekte), zur
Sprachtypologie und zur Sprachstruktur (sowohl zur Struktur
einzelner Sprachen als auch zum Sprachvergleich). Einen Schwerpunkt
bilden Untersuchungen zu kaukasischen Sprachen, ganz besonders zum
Georgischen, wobei in vielfaltiger Weise an Analysen des Jubilars
angeknupft wurde. This festschrift is cordially and respectfully
dedicated to the linguist Winfried Boeder (University of Oldenburg,
Germany) to honour him as a friend, colleague and teacher on the
occasion of his 65th birthday. Winfried Boeder is not only one of
the most distinguished scholars of Caucasian languages b ut he is
also widely recognised for the great and continuing contribution he
has made to the field of general and comparative linguistics.
Accordingly, the present volume includes papers on three separate
but related areas: philology (both from a linguistic and cultural
point of view), language typology and language structure (including
comparative studies). The 25 contribution are thus held together by
the links they have with various aspects of winfried Boeder's work.
Georgian, a language for which he has a particular affection, is
the topic of a large number of papers, both from a synchronic and
diachronic point of view.
This volume contains the results of the Bayreuth SFB research
program "Effects of globalisation processes on the vitality of
languages in West African cities." Two towns with different
historical and colonial background, Maiduguri in Nigeria and
Banfora in Burkina Faso, were selected as research areas. The
contrast between language and social institutions is most obvious
in the colonial and post- colonial world in Africa. Colonization
was characterized by the importation of European institutions which
were of a qualitatively new nature linked to the globalising
forces. This qualitative newness is captured in our term "direct
globalisation." A basic observation is that the globalising forces
led to a hierarchicalisation of languages in Africa which is not
obviously attested in the institutions of direct globalisation. Our
term "indirect globalisation" describes the alignment of local
practices to the external forces and institutions introduced during
a globalising colonial and post-colonial experience.
