Exceptional Language and LinguisticsLoraine K. Obler, Lise Menn Academic Press, 1982 - 372 strán (strany) In this book, leading scholars in eighteen subfields of linguistics demonstrate how research on exceptional language behaviour illuminates linguistic theory. The authors explore systematic performance phenomena which occur in groups of exceptional language speakers and exceptional language situations. These patterns suggest ways to test claims of psychological reality and to examine models of langauge production and comprehension. Both creative language use and error data provide evidence for choosing among alternative linguistic theories. The exceptional groups covered include bilinguals, children, aphasics, poets, and bureaucrats. Other papers treat exceptional language use in creoles and pidgins; in dying languages, translations, or proverbs; and in ritual, play, and sign language. |
