Estudos dialetais brasileiros e europeus: uma homenagem a João Saramago. Volume 2

Abstract

This work, presented in two volumes, is organized as follows: volume 1 with five chapters and volume 2 with eleven chapters written by Brazilian and foreign researchers, which reveal to the reader linguistic and cultural aspects, perceptions, beliefs and attitudes of the communities investigated, to which are added theoretical-methodological questions for carrying out geosociolinguistic studies. Each chapter reproduces clippings of dialectological studies from here and abroad on Portuguese, Galician, Italian, Sardinian, including linguistic contacts, in addition to a chapter on software applicable to geolinguistic dialectometric studies. It is an enriching reading, full of revelations regarding linguistic varieties and the processes of linguistic variation and change, especially at the phonetic and lexical level, highlighting the history and culture of the studied languages. The second volume, with eleven chapters, is dedicated to lexical studies.
