Gegenstand des Lexikons sind Konzepte, in denen sich das Sprachdenken des 17. und 18. Jahrhunderts darstellt und die in begrifflich geordneter Form vorgestellt werden (ca. 200 Termini in 60 Artikeln). Berücksichtigt wird dabei auch die epochenbezogene Dynamik, durch die das Sprachdenken des 17. und 18. Jahrhunderts ein Konzeptualisierungsangebot für spätere Zeiträume werden konnte. Es wird von einem Verständnis von Geschichte der Sprachwissenschaft als Problem- und Theoriengeschichte ausgegangen, die Entstehungsbedingungen, Kommunikationsräume und interdisziplinäre Wechselbeziehungen zu berücksichtigen hat.

The first-ever U.S. edition of this delightful gem based on a letter Joyce wrote to his grandson, revealing the modernist master’s playful side—filled with one-of-a-kind illustrations—the perfect gift for Joyce fans and cat lovers alike. The Cats of Copenhagen was first written for James Joyce’s most beloved audience, his only grandson, Stephen James Joyce, and sent in a letter dated September 5, 1936. Cats were clearly a common currency between Joyce and his grandson. In early August 1936, Joyce sent Stephen “a little cat filled with sweets”—a kind of Trojan cat meant to outwit grown-ups. A few weeks later, Joyce penned a letter from Copenhagen that begins “Alas! I cannot send you a Copenhagen cat because there are no cats in Copenhagen.” The letter reveals the modernist master at his most playful, yet Joyce’s Copenhagen has a keen, anti-authoritarian quality that transcends the mere whimsy of a children’s story. Only recently rediscovered, this marks the inaugural U.S. publication of The Cats of Copenhagen, a treasure for readers of all ages. A rare addition to Joyce’s known body of work, it is a joy to see this exquisite story in print at last.
The dictionary expands on the original idea of Karttunen and Lockhart to map the usage of loans in Nahuatl, by using a much larger and diversified corpus of sources, and by including contextual use, missing in earlier studies. Most importantly, these sources enrich the colonial corpus with modern data – significantly expanding on our knowledge on language continuity and change.
