Imagining language : an anthology
Jed Rasula (Editor), Steve McCaffery (Editor)
"... a collection of writings that demonstrates a continuum of creative conjecture on language from antiquity to the present. The result is more laboratory than inventory. The anthology, which spans three millennia, generally bypasses chronology in order to illuminate unexpected congruities between seemingly discordant materials ... Together the five parts celebrate the scope and prodigality of linguistic speculation in the West going back to the pre-Socratics"--Page 4 of cover
