The Linguist's Linguist

A Collection of Papers in Honour of Alexis Manaster Ramer

Fabrice Cavoto (ed.)


This collection of papers, presented in two volumes, is dedicated to one of the most innovative theoreticians and practitioners of linguistic research (in the widest sense of the term) in our time.

A central goal behind this publication has been to represent as many areas of linguistics as possible—reflecting one of the most striking characteristics of Alexis Manaster Ramer's work. A hallmark of his research has been a powerful and precise method, which was made possible in large measure by his experience with many more branches of the discipline than most linguists usually manage today. His numerous publications have brought depth and rigour to such varied fields as a dozen branches of comparative linguistics, phonetics, phonology, syntactic theory, typology, mathematical linguistics, mixed languages, and history of linguistics, quite aside from his work in several fields outside of linguistics.

The papers included in this collection deal with problems in most of these fields, with a certain preponderance of comparative issues.

These twin volumes are not the outcome of any specific event, nor are they a festschrift for a birthday. Instead, they are conceived as a declaration of friendship, an appreciation of the work that Alexis Manaster Ramer has accomplished so far, and of an expression of the common wish that he will be able to resume his highly original and thought-provoking, but always rigorous, research in the near future.
