Les Langues Crites Du Monde

Coverage spans from 1957, the publication date of Chomsky's seminal work, to the present, with emphasis on English-language resources. DeMiller's detailed citations describe and evaluate each work, often offering comparisons to similar titles. Its broad coverage and in-depth reviews make this work essential to the research and study of general or theoretical linguistics. The book is also indispensable in the related areas of anthropological linguistics, applied linguistics, mathematical and computation linguistics, psycholinguistics, semiotics, and sociolinguistics, which are all treated in separate chapters, as well as the study of language and languages from a linguistic perspective.

Cette étude sur les langues du monde vise à examiner la situation sociolinguistique du monde : décrire la diversité linguistique qui caractérise actuellement l'humanité, évaluer les tendances à l'uniformité linguistique et établir une série de principes ou de mesures d'aménagement linguistique favorisant les communautés linguistiques les plus fragiles ou les plus menacées d'extinction. Cet ouvrage, accessible à tous, présente judicieusement la mise en danger de la langue, et ce en conjuguant la précision scientifique détaillée et l'inquiétude sociale légitime.
