Description

Colonialism and Missionary Linguistics is the fifth volume in the Koloniale und Postkoloniale Linguistik / Colonial and Postcolonial Linguistics (KPL/CPL) series published by De Gruyter. This scholarly work explores the intersection of colonial history, linguistic study, and missionary activity, examining how language was shaped by and served colonial expansion. The volume contributes to postcolonial linguistic scholarship by investigating the role of missionaries in documenting, standardising, and transforming languages across colonised territories. Essential reading for scholars of historical linguistics, postcolonial studies, and the history of language documentation practices.

Key Features

Examines the relationship between missionary activity and linguistic change during the colonial period across multiple regions and language communities.

Offers critical postcolonial perspectives on how colonial powers and religious institutions shaped language documentation, standardisation, and transmission.

Suitable for university libraries, linguistics departments, and researchers specialising in historical linguistics, sociolinguistics, and colonial studies.
