Les Nouvelles Ambitions de la Linguistique Diachronique

The nine volumes containing the proceedings of this conference (with over 450 contributions) provide a comprehensive picture of research being done in the field of Romance Language Studies at the end of the 20th century. The papers are divided into nine sections covering the central sectors of Romance studies: history of linguistics; diachronic linguistics; dialectoloy, language geography and sociolinguistics; lexicology and lexicography, onomastics; theory and practice of scholarly editing; morphology and syntax; semantics and pragmatics; rhetorics, semiotics, stylistics; language acquisition, language teaching, creolistics. This broad spectrum is supplemented by six 'round table' discussions.
