BIBLIOGRAPHY

General works: Francis P. Dineen, An Introduction to
General Linguistics
(New York, 1967), provides the history
of linguistics discussed mainly in the light of twentieth-
century structural grammar. Hans Arens, Sprachwissen-
schaft: Der Gang ihrer Entwicklung von der Antike bis zur
Gegenwart
(Munich, 1969), provides extracts in German
translation from works on language from Ancient Greece
to modern times, with historical notes and a commentary
connecting the extracts. Half the text is devoted to the
nineteenth century—mainly Germany—one-fourth to the
twentieth century. R. H. Robins, A Short History of Lin-
guistics
(New York, 1967), gives comparatively ample space
to ancient linguistics and to transformational grammar.

Particular periods: H. Steinthal, Geschichte der
Sprachwissenschaft bei den Griechen und Römern,
2nd ed.
(Berlin, 1890; reprint 1961). R. H. Robins, “Dionysius Thrax
and the Western Grammatical Tradition,” Transactions of
the Philological Society
(1957), 67-106. Theodor Benfey,
Geschichte der Sprachwissenschaft und orientalischen Philo-
logie in Deutschland
(Munich, 1869), the first 300 pages
of which are a general history of linguistics, with about 65
pages devoted to Indian grammar. J. F. Staal and Paul
Kiparsky, “Syntactic and Semantic Relations in Pānini,”
Foundations of Language, 5, No. 1 (1969). Jan Pinborg, “Die
Entwicklung der Sprachtheorie im Mittelalter,” Beiträge zur
Geschichte der Philosophie und Theologie des Mittelalters,

42:2 (Münster, 1967), is chiefly concerned with the epistem-
ological aspects of the Modi Significandi theory. Charles
Thurot, Notices et extraits des Manuscrits de la Bibliothèque
Impériale,
Vol. 22:2 (Paris, 1868), consists of extracts from
medieval manuscripts on grammar, with connecting com-
mentary. Holger Pedersen, Linguistic Science in the Nine-
teenth Century,
English trans. (Bloomington, 1959), is a
popular introduction, written in 1924. John Lyons, Intro-
duction to Theoretical Linguistics
(New York, 1968), is a
balanced account of modern linguistic theories.
