Si, pour nos traditions grammaticales européennes, la reconnaissance des appositions comme objet grammatical et non plus seulement comme éléments ressortissants à la rhétorique ne se fait que tardivement et non sans allers-retours, en gros vers le xvi e siècle, celles-ci sont intégrées à la grammaire de l’arabe dès le début de son histoire au ii e/viii e siècle. La prime tradition grammaticale arabe reconnaît même, de manière implicite mais suffisamment claire, l’opposition à faire entre apposition liée et apposition détachée, ce que nos traditions grammaticales attendrons encore longtemps. Un autre trait de la singularité de la tradition grammaticale arabe sur cette question de la reconnaissance grammaticale des appositions, fait l’objet de cet article : elle est semble-t-il la première mais encore la seule à intégrer à son matériau grammatical l’erreur commise par le locuteur, qu’il s’agisse d’une faute d’inattention ou d’un oubli momentané, c’est-à-dire ce qui est nommé depuis le xx e siècle et ses préoccupations propres lapsus (linguae, memoriae). Et si elle en traite grammaticalement, c’est parce qu’elle reconnaît les corrections de ces erreurs comme des types d’apposition, des permutations, ce que ne fait encore que très imparfaitement la linguistique générale contemporaine et pas du tout les grammaires des langues européennes. Cet article met en avant la contribution que la grammaire de l’arabe peut apporter à la grammaire générale en lien avec grammatisation des appositions.

Cet article analyse le processus de disciplinarisation des études basques –ou leur constitution en tant que sujet d’enquête académique —comme exemple d’area study dans une nation sans État. A cette fin, il décrit la confluence des courants discursifs en bascologie à la fin du XIXe siècle dans un contexte de création des disciplines de la linguistique et de la philologie romane en Europe et de la “renaissance” de la langue et de l’identité basques. L’article soutient que ce processus s’est distingué par l’intégration de deux traditions —l’une “locale”, unie à la patrie basque, et l’autre “étrangère”, liée à la bascologie européenne— dans la stratégie de publication de la Revue Internationale des Études Basques (fondée en 1907). L’étude montre comment les conventions discursives dans lesquelles ces traditions ont été insérées ont influencé non seulement la production de connaissances, mais aussi la manière dont le sujet des études basques s’est construit à travers la fondation d’un congrès et d’une revue internationaux, et la canonisation des textes originaux basques.

In this paper we examine the life and work of Jakób Handel (1888–c.1942), an underappreciated Polish-Jewish scholar whose interests ranged from comparative-historical linguistics and the history of linguistics to classical history and Jewish studies. Apart from printed publications, his contributions include various forms of outreach directed towards the Jewish community in Lviv (Ukrainian Львів [L'viv], Polish Lwów, German Lemberg). Based among others on the available records of his involvement in professional societies and the reviews of his books, we point to the reasons behind the relative lack of appreciation of his work among contemporary and later scholars despite its in-depth and original nature.

In this paper I discuss the varied contributions of Erminnie Adele Smith (1836–1886), a linguist, ethnologist, and geologist, who has a significant but underestimated place in the history of the study of North American languages. Among others, Smith was among the first scholars to collaborate extensively with Indigenous consultants and the first woman in the history of Western linguistics who published works on grammatical gender. Such achievements point to the need to reconsider her life and work in the context of the reception of the first generation of women in American anthropology as well as the study of gender in Iroquoian languages since the mid-19th century.

Over the years, Noam Chomsky has constructed a historiographic narrative according to which Generative Grammar is the outcome of a mix comprising the early awareness of creativity by Galileo, the Cartesians, and Humboldt, the formalization of recursive functions by computational theorists, and an incipient internalist ‘language’ concept notably foreshadowed by Otto Jespersen. This paper tries to show that the latter ingredient is to be removed from the historical recipe for Chomskyan linguistics. More specifically, the paper claims that the almost ritual repetition of the name of the Danish linguist belongs to a component of the generativist rhetoric that is ‘non-rational’. Such a component is part and parcel of most ground-breaking theories.

The concept of a colloquial variety of Latin as an intermediate variety between Latin and the Romance languages has a long standing. Sometimes called Vulgar or Popular Latin, this variety is often conceptualized as a discrete linguistic variety, which is held responsible for the changes in the provincial realization of Latin. Since a great deal of evidence for this variety is collected from written texts, studies on the emergence of the Romance languages have tended to ignore the actual process of language acquisition in the provinces of the Roman empire. In the present paper I draw attention to the work of two early scholars, the Italian Celso Cittadini (1533–1627) and the Frenchman Pierre-Nicolas Bonamy (1694–1770), who did concern themselves with the acquisition of Latin, referring to the role of the Roman army in spreading the Latin language throughout the empire. Their suggestions about the process of Latinization can be substantiated with data on the military presence in the provinces of the Roman empire.
