{"product_id":"9783110555134","title":"Egyptian-Coptic Linguistics in Typological Perspective","description":"  \u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=iso-8859-1\" http-equiv=\"content-type\"\u003e \u003cmeta name=\"generator\" content=\"mshtml 8.00.6001.23636\"\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis volume presents the Egyptian-Coptic language in cross-linguistic (‘typological’) perspective. It is aimed at linguists of all stripes, especially typologists, historical linguists, and specialists in Egyptian-Coptic, Afroasiatic languages, or African languages. Uniquely, the contributions are written by both typologists and experts of Egyptian-Coptic and typologists. The former provide case studies dealing with particular aspects of the various phases of the Egyptian-Coptic language (e.g., COLLIER on conditional constructions), while the latter situate Egyptian-Coptic data in cross-linguistic perspective (e.g., those by GUELDEMANN and GENSLER). The volume also includes an introductory section that includes an overview of the Egyptian-Coptic language (HASPELMATH), a sketch of its sociohistorical setting (GROSSMAN \u0026amp; RICHTER), its relationship with language typology (RICHTER), and the way in which Egyptian-Coptic data should be presented to nonspecialists, focusing on transliteration and glossing (GROSSMAN \u0026amp; HASPELMATH).This is the first book to bring together language typology and the Egyptian-Coptic language in an explicit fashion. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"De Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47052220793072,"sku":"9783110555134","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783110555134_p0.jpg?v=1763718411","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783110555134","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
