About this book

This reader is part of a five-volume-edition and comprises an in-depth presentation of the state of the art in word-formation. Volume 1 focuses on the historical and theoretical foundations of the field. The diachronic origins are presented that give rise to different theoretical perspectives while converging on the basic units that characterize the organization of lexical knowledge and the processes involved in the formation of new words.

Reviews

"It is really good news that the core content from the invaluable Handbook of Word-Formation (HSK) is now more available to researchers and students in paperback. The coverage is extraordinary and is provided by top European scholars in the field. Whether you want to keep up-to-date or expand your oversight, there is something here for everyone interested in the study of word-formation."

Laurie Bauer, Professor Emeritus, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand
