René de Saussure and the theory of word formation

Although originating in René de Saussure's concerns for the structure of Esperanto, these essays are clearly intended to articulate a general account of word formation in natural language. They appear here in the French original with facing English translations, accompanied by some remarks on René de Saussure's life and followed by essays on the Esperantist background of his analysis (by Marc van Oostendorp), the contemporary relevance of his morphological theory (by Stephen Anderson),…

Über den Autor
Stephen Anderson is the Dorothy R. Diebold Professor of Linguistics, Emeritus, since his retirement in 2017. After completing his PhD at MIT in 1969, he taught in the Linguistics Departments at Harvard and UCLA before moving to The Johns Hopkins University in 1988 as a co-founder of one of the first Departments of Cognitive Science. In 1994, he came to Yale as Chair of the Linguistics Department, where he spent the remainder of his career until retirement. His research involves most of the major areas of general linguistics, but focused initially on phonology and later on morphological theory, as well as on the history of the field and the analysis of a variety of languages. Most recently he has worked on the biology of the Language Faculty, including its evolution and the relation between human language and animal communication. Among his books are Phonology in the twentieth century (Chicago, 1983), A-Morphous Morphology (Oxford, 1992) and Doctor Dolittle's delusion (Yale, 2004). He was President of the Linguistic Society of America in 2007, and is a Fellow of that Society as well as the American Academy of Arts & Sciences and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
