La traversée des langues
Ce livre est une exploration du fonctionnement des langues. Sans ignorer les théories scientifiques qui ont émergé tout au long du XXe siècle, il ne cherche pas à décrire formellement ses objets. Son regard se porte ailleurs. La traversée des langues soumet un nombre représentatif de langues du monde à une analyse autour de quelques notions choisies (le mot, la phrase, être et avoir, le genre, la possession, l’écrit et l’oral) en fonction de leurs différences par rapport au français. Elle s’appuie principalement pour cela sur des manuels d’apprentissage des langues, lesquels ont en commun de porter l’accent sur des particularités les distinguant de notre propre langue. Conçu ainsi, le livre réussit à rendre sensible au lecteur les différentes manières dont chaque type de langue parle, et d’un certain point de vue nous dit quelque chose d’unique de pourtant compréhensible. L’ouvrage s’achève sur une analyse du Chinois, langue « différente » par excellence.

A Grammar of Eton
A Grammar of Eton is the first description of the Cameroonian Bantu language Eton. It is also one of the few complete descriptions of a North-western Bantu language. The complex tonology of Eton is carefully analysed and presented in a simple and consistent descriptive framework, which permits the reader to keep track of Eton's many tonal morphemes. Phonologists will be especially interested in the analysis of stem initial prominence, which manifests itself in a number of logically independent phenomena, including length of the onset consonant, phonotactic skewing and number of tonal attachment sites. Typologists and Africanists working on morphosyntax will find useful analyses of, among others, gender and agreement; tense, aspect, mood and negation; and verbal derivation. They will encounter many morphosyntactic differences between Eton and the better known Eastern and Southern Bantu languages, often due to evolutions shaped by maximality constraints on stems. The chapters on clause structure and complex constructions provide data hardly found in sources on the languages of the region, including descriptions of non-verbal clauses, focus, quasi-auxiliaries and adverbial clauses.
