Essays on Time-Based Linguistic Analysis by Charlesjames Bailey
This is a collection of Professor Bailey's writings on linguistic theory. The author argues for a theory which is time-based, and against the prevailing synchronic approach in linguistic theory. Previously published papers have been revised and updated.
Bailey reveals in a clear and consistent fashion the main distinction between his own framework and synchronic models.. I commend the author and the publishers of this book. ETLA is very well argued and written ... Further, and most importantly, Oxford University Press and the editors of this book are to be commended for making Bailey's most important work available to the linguistic community in a book that will be easy to obtain at university libraries and for giving Bailey his due credit as one of the most original linguists of this century. ETLA is an important contribution to linguistic theory and language variation and change ... I recommend this book to all linguistics students and scholars of historical linguistics, linguistic variation, and linguistic theory ... This book should be in the library of anyone interested in linguistic theory, historical linguistics, and linguistic variation. * Eduardo D. Faingold, Australian Journal of Linguistics *
