"This volume is of interest to any linguist working on Oceanic languages, general typology, and various aspects of sentential and nominal morphosyntax. It is a significant contribution to the field, mainly because of the rich original data, innovative methodologies and useful comparative overviews the different articles provide."

Book Description Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This monograph is a collection of selected papers on Oceanic languages. For the first time, aspects of the morphology and syntax of Oceanic languages such as the encoding of sentence types, the structure of the noun phrase, noun incorporation, constituent order, and ergative vs. accusative alignment are discussed from a comparative point of view, thus drawing attention to genetic, areal and language-specific features. The individual papers are based on the field work of the authors on lesser-described and endangered languages and are basically descriptive studies. At the same time they also explore the theoretical implications of the data presented and analyzed, as well as the historical development of certain morpho-syntactic phenomena, without basing these explorations on a single theoretical framework. The book provides new insights into the morphosyntactic structures of Oceanic languages and is of interest primarily for linguists working on Austronesian, in particular Melanesian, Micronesian, and Polynesian languages, but also for typologists and linguists working on language change. 352 pp. Englisch.
