Internal Structure of Verb meaning: A Study of verbs in Tamazight (Berber)
makes years of academic research in linguistics available to a wide audience. It
¡s written in such a way that it serves as an introduction to the domains of
lexical semantics and the organization of grammar for students. The book
investigates the internal structure and the predicate-argument structure of verbs
of (change of) state, including unaccusatives, verbs of spatial configuration,
causatives, and those traditionally referred to as verbs of quality in the linguistic
literature on Tamazight. The Tamazight data investigated is so peculiar that it
reveals a lot about the construction and derivation of verb meaning from both
the ontogenetic and the phylogenetic views. The analysis provided in this book
also shows in a parsimonious and most lucid way how lexical semantics
interacts with other syntactic approaches including Government and Binding
and the Minimalist program.
As most of the literature available on Tamazight is written in French, the author
also made a pledge to inform the English-speaking world about the reality of
Tamazight not only as a living language, but also as a culture and an identity
that is still cherished and defended by its owners across North Africa, from
Morocco to Egypt and in some Sub-Saharan countries including Mali, Niger,
and Burkina
Faso in
a variety known as Tuareg. Although the language is still
spoken by some
40
million people in these two regions, political regimes in
these various countries have had enough of a nerve to even deny its existence
(see quotes, p.
iv).
You will be surprised to find out that Sheshonq, the founder
of the 22nd dynasty of Pharaohs in Egypt, was an Amazigh (Berber) from Libya;
and you will learn about how this millennia-old language has resisted some of
the most oppressive tyrants and regimes of our era.
Karim Achab is a linguist who is fond of languages. After graduating in English, French
and Anglo-Irish studies from the University of
Sorbonne
Nouvelle
(Paris III), and in
Hungarian and Tamazight (Berber) studies from the
Institut des langues et civilisations
orientales in Paris,
he received a PhD in Linguistics from the University of Ottawa. He
has published a few articles in the domains of linguistics and Tamazight studies. He is
currently working as a learning advisor for the Government of Canada and as a part-time
professor at the University of Ottawa. He lives with his family in Ottawa.
