Hugo Schuchardt was effectively the founder of the flourishing
field of creole studies. He assembled an enormous corpus of
source-material in the form of texts, transcripts, word-lists and
dictionaries and between 1880 and 1920 published the results with
his own commentaries in a series of reviews and articles. Professor
Gilbert has edited and translated a coherent selection of the most
important essays, comprising Schuchadrt's studies of the
English-based creoles and two of his major theoretical papers on
the Lingua Franca and the Language of the Saramacca Negroes in
Surinam. His introduction surveys Schuchardt's work as a whole and
analyses his more specific contributions in these selections. The
volume will be welcomed by a wide range of linguists and
anthropologists.
