• Sign linguistics has led to recognize signed languages as full-fledged natural languages, uncovering profound similarities with verbal languages but also relevant differences, especially with respect to multilinear and iconic features specific of the signed modality. Yet general linguistics remains for the most rooted in our knowledge of verbal languages. There is little discussion over the need of defining shared, modality-independent constructs and methodologies. These can be crucial for avoiding the risk of an “assimiliationist” view of signed languages built on verbal language-based categories. This book aims to stimulate the debate over these issues. Specialists of signed and verbal languages explore in an accessible way, from a broad cross-linguistic perspective, topics of general theoretical interest: the linearity and arbitrariness principles, the definition of units and levels of analysis, the expression of grammatical categories and the representation of events, semantic relations, cohesion mechanisms. The indications they provide pave the way for a more thorough recognition of similarities and differences between signed and verbal languages, and open novel perspectives for further comparative research on these two major types of human languages.

• This book is the first to explore how much of knowledge based on research on spoken languages needs to be refined in the light of the growing field of siggn linguistics. Drawing upon a broad cross-linguistic perspective, the contributors focus on topics of general theoretical interest: linearity and arbitrariness principles, definition of units and levels of analysis, expression of grammatical categories, semantic relations, cohesion mechanisms. The book is of interest to language typologists, theoretical and decriptive linguistics, scholars in the fields of semiotics, anthropology, gesture studies, and cogntive sciences at large. (literal)
