西方语言学与应用语言学视野：历史语言学和语言演变
语言在时间——空间的维度中变化。历史语言学是一门工艺，是语言学家在演变的结果上练习，为了能够讲述一个关于语言演变的连贯的故事。本书作者对历史语言学这门艺术的基础、历史语言学与其研究对象——语言的变化的互动，作了批判性的检查；并且以一些主要的哲学议题，诸如：本体论、现实主义、传统主义和解释，作为他讨论的背景。作者提出的问题包括：资料从何而来？资料的可信度如何？我们通常所使用的重构技术的经验基础是什么？在多大程度上历史学家创造资料而不是接受资料？这个矛盾的结论就是：我们所使用的绘制历史图画的方法远比我们所要处理的资料要好的多。《西方语言学与应用语言学视野》汇集了作者多年的研究成果，是一本关于语言的历史及变化的经典著作。
