"El espanol en contacto con otras lenguas" is the first comprehensive historical, social, and linguistic overview of Spanish in contact with other languages in all of its major contexts - in Spain, the United States, and Latin America. In this significant contribution to the field of Hispanic linguistics, Carol A. Klee and Andrew Lynch explore the historical and social factors that have shaped contact varieties of the Spanish language, synthesizing the principle arguments and theories about language contact, and examining linguistic changes in Spanish phonology, morphology and syntax, and pragmatics. Individual chapters analyze particular contact situations: in Spain, contact with Basque, Catalan, Valencian, and Galician; in Mexico, Central, and South America, contact with Nahuatl, Maya, Quechua, Aimara, and Guarani; in the Southern Cone, contact with other principle European languages such as Portuguese, Italian, English, German, and Danish; and, in the United States, contact with English.
A separate chapter explores issues of creolization in the Philippines and the Americas and highlights the historical influence of African languages on Spanish, primarily in the Caribbean and Equatorial Guinea. Written in Spanish, this detailed synthesis of wide-ranging research will be a valuable resource for scholars of Hispanic linguistics, language contact, and sociolinguistics.
Carol A. Klee is assistant vice president for international scholarship at the University of Minnesota. She is coauthor of Linguistica aplicada: la adquisicion del espanol como segunda lengua. Andrew Lynch is an assistant professor of Spanish and director of the Spanish heritage language program at the University of Miami.
