Book Reconstructing the Middle Ages

Download or read book Reconstructing the Middle Ages written by Carolina Armenteros and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-05-27 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reconstructing the Middle Ages looks at nineteenth-century medievalism in France using as a case study Gaston Paris, philologist, literary critic and professor of medieval studies. Gaston Paris's method, traditionally seen as a combination of romanticism and positivism, exemplifies several elements of nineteenth-century medievalism in the Parisian academia in late nineteenth-century France. The text investigates Gaston Paris's theories about three medieval literary genres (epic, fabliaux, and Arthurian tales) to understand how Paris's view of medieval literature and history cross-related with nationalism at a time when France was particularly vulnerable, and at which French academics were especially eager to make a long-lasting contribution. Examining the work of Gaston Paris and his interaction with other scholars in the Parisian milieu, Reconstructing the Middle Ages offers a look at academic medievalism and the history philology, linguistics and literary and textual criticism in late nineteenth-century France. In particular, the book shows that when it comes to the self-image of France, medievalism was a topic that reached far beyond the walls of academia as it was related to national pride, memory and identity.

Book History of Linguistics  Volume IV

Download or read book History of Linguistics Volume IV written by Anna Morpurgo Davies and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The History of Linguistics, to be published in five volumes, aims to provide the reader with an authoritative and comprehensive account of the attitudes to language prevailing in different civilizations and in different periods by examining the very varied development of linguistic thought in the specific social, cultural and religious contexts involved. Issues discussed include the place of language in education, variation and prestige, and approaches to lexical and grammatical description. The authors of the individual chapters are specialists who have analysed the primary sources and produced original syntheses by exploring the linguistic interests and assumptions of particular cultures in their own terms, without seeking to reinterpret them as contributions towards the development of contemporary western conceptions of linguistic science. In Volume IV: Nineteenth Century Linguistics, Anna Morpurgo Davies shows how linguistics came into its own as an independent discipline separated from philosophical and literary studies and enjoyed a unique intellectual and institutional success tied to the research ethos of the new universities, until it became a model for other humanistic subjects which aimed at 'scientific status'. The linguistics of the nineteenth century abandons earlier theoretical discussions in favour of a more empirical and historical approach using new methods to compare languages and to investigate their history. The great achievement of this period is the demonstration that languages such as Sanskrit , Latin and English are related and derive from a parent language which is not attested but can be reconstructed. This book discusses in detail the theories developed and the individual findings obtained. In contrast with earlier historiographical trends it denies that the new approach originated entirely from German Romanticism, and highlights a form of continuity with the eighteenth century, while stressing that a deliberate break took place round the 1830s. By the end of the century the results of comparative and historical linguistics had been generally accepted, but it soon became clear that a historical approach could not by itself solve all questions that it raised. At this point the new interest in description and theory which characterizes the twentieth century began to gain prominence.

Download or read book Schools of Thought written by O. Amsterdamska and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on the assumption that the development of science has to be understood both as a social and as an intellectual process. The division between internal and external history, between history of ideas and sociology of science, has been harmful not only to our understanding of scientific rationality but also to our understanding of the social processes of scientific development. Just as philosophy of science must be informed by its history, so also must sociology of science be both historically and philosophically informed. Proceeding on this assumption, I examine in detail the contents of linguistic ideas and the changes they underwent, as well as the institutional processes of disciplinary development and school formation. The development of linguistics in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries has provided me with a convenient locus for a study of the processes of cognitive change and continuity in the context of modern academically institutionalized science. This book examines first the idea system and the institutionalization of historical and comparative linguistics in the first half of the nineteenth century, and then focusses on the for mation and development of three schools of thought: the Neogrammarians, the Neo-Idealists, and the Geneva School of Ferdinand de Saussure.

Book Essays toward a history of linguistic theories

Download or read book Essays toward a history of linguistic theories written by Sylvain Auroux and published by Presses Univ. Septentrion. This book was released on 1984 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce volume est l'aboutissement des actes d'un colloque international tenu à Lille en 1982. Son titre est explicite: il ne s'agit pas d'une histoire pointilliste, événementielle des avatars de la linguistique ou de la vie des linguistes mais bien d'une réflexion collective sur ce qu'a été, ce qu'est, ce que pourrait être, une théorie linguistique dans ses rapports avec son époque, ses auteurs, ses récepteurs et les autres théories auxquelles elle fait écho ou auxquelles elle répond. C'est ce qui a déterminé la composition du volume: il comporte sept parties qui regroupent les communications selon leurs thèmes d'intérêt:1- Méthodologie2- Période héllénistique et romaine3- Moyen Age (ce qui de loin est la période la plus intérssante et qui n'a été que récemment découverte)4- La Renaissance et l'âge classique5- Les Lumières (qui fait le point sur les nombreux travaux récents qui ont été consacrés à cette période et qui ajoute de précieuses contributions)6- XIXe et XXe siècles (périodes encore mal connues ou trop proches pour qu'on ose en parler)7- Histoire et méthodologie (section qui tente de faire le point sur les rapports entre logique, langage, sociologie, philosophie.)Aucun ouvrage actuel de linguistique ne peut prétendre être une somme, non plus qu'un synthèse. Celui-ci, dont les participants appartiennent à toutes les écoles linguistiques, ou se défendent de relever d'une quelconque obédience, n'a pas non plus ces prétentions: il se veut simplement outil d'information, objet de discussion.
