Atti del XXI Congresso Internazionale di Linguistica e Filologia Romanza / Dialettologia, geolinguistica, sociolinguistica

The six volumes containing the proceedings of this conference (with over 400 contributions) provide a very up-to-date and comprehensive picture of the research being done at present in the field of Romance Language Studies. The papers are divided into 8 sections covering the central sectors of Romance studies: historical grammar, morphology and syntax; lexicology and semantics; structure of spoken language; dialectology, language geography and sociolinguistics; language history of the Mediterranean area; editing medieval literary texts; interpretation paradigms for understanding medieval culture. This broad spectrum is supplemented by seven 'round table' discussions involving the main representatives of the various sectors.
