The Cambridge Handbook of Spanish Linguistics

About this book

"The field of Spanish linguistics has a long-standing history, with an ever-increasing presence across multiple sub-fields of linguistic inquiry. This edited volume provides a state-of-the-art survey of the field of Spanish linguistics, striking a balance between depth of coverage in the most widely studied areas and breadth of coverage across sub- areas of this field. The Handbook aims to be readable to a diverse audience, including those with less extensive knowledge of linguistics or Spanish. It is particularly well suited for advanced undergraduate students or beginning graduate students in the field of Spanish linguistics. Nevertheless, the current and critical accounts of the most important research developments in each sub-field contained in the Handbook, as well as the critical discussions of directions for future research, are also of interest to top scholars across sub-fields. The breadth of coverage and diversity of approaches contained in this volume further ensure that this collection serves readers working on Spanish linguistics as well as researchers and students in allied fields such as General Linguistics, Anthropology, Sociology, Cognitive Science, Psychology and Language Education"--
