Conversion in Morphology

This book provides a detailed account of morphological conversion, a process whereby a word is turned into a distinct but semantically and/or grammatically related word without any change of form. The chapters explore key questions relating to conversion and offer accounts of the process in a range of language families.

The Oxford Handbook of Greek and Latin Textual Criticism

This Handbook deals with textual criticism of Greek and Latin literature and of ancient documents (inscriptions, papyri), that is the process of trying to establish, on the basis of such evidence as we have, the original state of an ancient text.

Clichés We Live By

Clichés We Live By examines how clichés shape the way we speak, think, and understand the world. It follows the history of clichés from ancient times to today's digital and AI age, showing that they are more than just overused tropes.
