Malay Words and Malay Things
The book traces the development of German acquaintance with the Malayan world and language as reflected in publications up to 1700. Beginning with a perusal of earliest cartographic renderings and a recapitulation of economic and political circumstances of German involvement in European Far-Eastern trade after 1500, the volume proceeds to systematically inspect 16th and 17th century German travellers' memoirs and translations of foreign sources. Relevant text passages are quoted in the original with English gloss. Citations of renderings of Malay items are accompanied by transliterations in modern spelling. Ultimate and intermediate sources and the routes by which various items reached the German public are followed, as well as virtual networks of information. Etymologies of numerous real or assumed Malayisms are elaborately reinspected, and corrected where necessary. The development in usage of the acquired Malayisms after 1700, reconstructed from entries in dictionaries and encyclopaedias and through direct quotation from German literature, is shown to reflect fluctuations in public attention towards features from exotic regions.
Tracts of Action
This volume offers the user a guide to the neglected field of how-to books. How do I make soap? How do I dye textiles? What ingredients do I need for a effective remedy? How can one find and mine mineral resources, how does one make pewter cups or a good meal? Practical information of this kind, on distillation, medicine, dyeing, cosmetics, glassmaking, ceramics, metallurgy and many other subjects, flooded the book market in the first centuries of printing. As varied as these subjects are the research questions that we might ask: How do you learn practical skills from a book? Why were these books so popular, who used them and how, and can they even be considered to be a clearly defined genre...
Linguistic Bibliography for the Year 2000 / Bibliographie Linguistique de l'Année 2000
Bibliographie Linguistique/ Linguistic Bibliography is the annual bibliography of linguistics published by the Permanent International Committee of Linguists under the auspices of the International Council of Philosophy and Humanistic Studies of UNESCO. With a tradition of more than fifty years (the first two volumes, covering the years 1939-1947, were published in 1949-1950), Bibliographie Linguistique is by far the most comprehensive bibliography in the field. It covers all branches of linguistics, both theoretical and descriptive, from all geographical areas, including less known and extinct languages, with particular attention to the many endangered languages of the world. Up-to-date information is guaranteed by the collaboration of some forty contributing specialists from all over the world. With over 20,000 titles arranged according to a detailed state-of-the-art classification, Bibliographie Linguistique remains the standard reference book for every scholar of language and linguistics.

Handbuch Sprache und Politik
Die sprachwissenschaftliche Forschung zur Sprache in der Politik ist angetreten, den politischen Sprachgebrauch und varietäten- bzw. registerspezifische Erscheinungsformen der politischen Sprache mit Methoden der deskriptiven Linguistik zu analysieren und zu beschreiben. Diese Analysen und Beschreibungen fanden erst vor gut 50 Jahren Anerkennung auch als Teilgebiet der Sprachwissenschaft; seit 1996 hat sich in Deutschland der Name Politolingustik dafür eingebürgert. Das vorliegende Handbuch sichtet die Vielzahl der politolinguistischen Ansätze, Methoden und Befunde, ordnet sie in 60 thematischen Beiträgen und bereitet sie für die Lehre sowie für die weitere Forschung auf dem aktuellen Stand auf.
