Strukturalismus i.Sprachw. German edition

During the time between the two World Wars, German linguistics was not nearly as isolated from international developments in the field as is often assumed. German language linguists not only comprehensively realized the then-current structural approaches of the Prague school, but often referred to them in their own innovative efforts. The study examines political, linguistic, and other determining factors of the reception of Structuralism in the German-speaking region, and a separate chapter focuses on the German reception within Czechoslovakia.
