Punjabi is an Indo-European language spoken in India and Pakistan, as well as in other countries outside Asia, and is recognized as one of the fifteen official languages of India. Along with Lhanda and the Western Pahari (Himalayan) dialects, Punjabi is the only modern Indo-European language which has developed tonal contrast. Together with Indian and Pakistani varieties of Punjabi, this book attempts to account for the linguistic and sociolinguistic properties of British and Canadian varieties of the language.

With his well-known elegance of style and intellectual range, George Steiner here explores the idea of creation in Western thought, literature, religion, and history. In the volume that may fairly be called his magnum opus, Steiner probes deeply into the driving forces of the human spirit, considers our perceptions of Western civilization’s lengthening afternoon shadows, and concludes with an eloquent evocation of the endlessness of beginnings.

This book addresses fundamental issues in linguistic theory, including the relation between formal and cognitive approaches, the autonomy of syntax, and the content of universal grammar. Professor Anderson focuses on the grammar of case relations and, after a critical history of modern grammars of case, explores unresolved issues in the field, including the degree to which syntactic categories are grounded in meaning and the notion of linguistic creativity.
