Linguistic varieties such as female speech, foreigner talk, and
colloquial language have not gone unnoticed when it comes to
Classical Greek, but little is known about later periods of the
Greek language. In this collective volume leading experts in the
field outline some of the most important varieties of
Post-classical and Byzantine Greek, basing themselves on a broad
range of literary and documentary sources, and advancing a number
of innovative methodologies. Close attention is paid to the
linguistic features that characterize these varieties, with
in-depth discussions of lexical, morpho-syntactic, orthographic,
and metrical variation, as well as the interrelationship between
these different types of variation. The volume thus offers valuable
insights into the nature of Post-classical and Byzantine Greek,
laying the foundation for future studies of linguistic variation in
these later stages of the language, while at the same time
providing a point of comparison for Classical Greek scholarship

TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS is a series of books that open new
perspectives in our understanding of language. The series publishes
state-of-the-art work on core areas of linguistics across
theoretical frameworks, as well as studies that provide new
insights by approaching language from an interdisciplinary
perspective. TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS considers itself a forum for
cutting-edge research based on solid empirical data on language in
its various manifestations, including sign languages. It regards
linguistic variation in its synchronic and diachronic dimensions as
well as in its social contexts as important sources of insight for
a better understanding of the design of linguistic systems and the
ecology and evolution of language. TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS publishes
monographs and outstanding dissertations as well as edited volumes,
which provide the opportunity to address controversial topics from
different empirical and theoretical viewpoints. High quality
standards are ensured through anonymous reviewing.
Bilingualism has seen an explosion of work in recent years. This volume introduces classicists, ancient historians, and other scholars interested in sociolinguistics to bilingualism in the ancient Mediterranean. The fifteen chapters cover theoretical and methodological issues and key aspects of the contact between Latin and Greek and among Latin, Greek, and other languages.
Bibliographie Linguistique/ Linguistic Bibliography is the annual
bibliography of linguistics published by the Permanent
International Committee of Linguists under the auspices of the
International Council of Philosophy and Humanistic Studies of
UNESCO. With a tradition of more than fifty years (the first two
volumes, covering the years 1939-1947, were published in
1949-1950), Bibliographie Linguistique is by far the most
comprehensive bibliography in the field. It covers all branches of
linguistics, both theoretical and descriptive, from all
geographical areas, including less known and extinct languages,
with particular attention to the many endangered languages of the
world. Up-to-date information is guaranteed by the collaboration of
some forty contributing specialists from all over the world. With
over 20,000 titles arranged according to a detailed
state-of-the-art classification, Bibliographie Linguistique remains
the standard reference book for every scholar of language and
linguistics.
