Readings in Linguistics: The Development of Descriptive Linguistics in America since 1925 is a comprehensive collection of essays and articles that trace the evolution of descriptive linguistics in America from 1925 to the present day. Written by Martin Joos, a renowned linguist, the book covers the major theoretical and methodological developments in the field of linguistics over the past century. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the history of descriptive linguistics in America, including a discussion of the major schools of thought and the key figures who shaped the field. The second part focuses on the theoretical and methodological developments in the field, including the rise of structural linguistics, transformational-generative grammar, and cognitive linguistics. The third part includes a selection of readings that illustrate the application of these theories and methods to various linguistic phenomena, such as phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics.Overall, Readings in Linguistics is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and development of descriptive linguistics in America. It provides a comprehensive overview of the major theoretical and methodological approaches to linguistics, as well as a selection of readings that demonstrate the practical application of these approaches to the study of language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
