Jacob Wackernagel, Vorlesgungen uber Syntax (Lectures on Syntax)

拟议的研究将完成评论，介绍和参考书目的一个新的版本（英文）Vorlesungen优语法mit besonderer BerOcksichtigung von Griechisch，拉丁语和德语（[讲座语法特别参考希腊语，拉丁语和德语]2卷，巴塞尔1920年6月，第二版。1926年8月）由伟大的瑞士古典主义者和语言学家雅各布瓦克纳奇！(1853 1938)。这本经典和比较语言学的杰作自1996年以来已经在德国绝版。新版将由世界出版集团出版。瓦克纳格尔的《Vorlesungen》不仅是19世纪晚期语言学和古典研究的重要丰碑；在很大程度上，它们今天仍然像以往一样提供信息和启发，是比较句法方面不可或缺的，仍然是任何语言中最好的介绍希腊语、拉丁语和比较语言学的书籍，尽管书名不同，但它们不仅介绍了语法，还介绍了语言的历史和史前的许多方面，它们的文体学和社会语言学，以及包括语法术语史在内的其他学科。新版旨在通过介绍、翻译、评论和参考书目，使具有古典、中世纪或现代语言或语言学背景的现代读者能够立即访问瓦克纳格尔的文本，解释瓦克纳格尔写作的学术背景和他所做的假设，并指出自20世纪20年代以来在瓦克纳格尔所讨论的主题的调查中取得的更重大进展。

The proposed research will complete the commentary, introduction and bibliography for a new edition (in English) of the Vorlesungen uber Syntax mit besonderer BerOcksichtigung von Griechisch, Lateinisch und Deutsch ([Lectures on Syntax with special reference to Greek, Latin and German] 2 vols, Basle 1920 6, 2nd ed. 1926 8) by the great Swiss classicist and linguist Jacob Wackernage! (1853 1938). This masterpiece of classical and comparative philology has been out of print in German since 1996. The new edition will be published by OUP.Wackernagel's Vorlesungen are not merely an important monument of 1ate 19th c. linguistics and classical studies: to a remarkable degree, they remain today as informative and suggestive as ever, indispensable on comparative syntax, and still the best available introduction, in any language, to Greek, Latin and comparative linguistics and, in spite of the title, not only to syntax, but to many aspects of the history and pre-history of the languages, their stylistics and sociolinguistics, and other subjects including the history of grammatical terminology.The new edition aims through the introduction, translation, commentary and bibliography to make Wackernagel's text immediately accessible to the modern reader with a background in classical, medieval or modern languages or linguistics, to explain the scholarly context in which Wackernagel was writing and the assumptions that he was making, and to indicate the more significant advances that have been made since the 1920s in investigations of the subjects addressed by Wackernagel.
