Content: Total reduplication is a widely common phenomenon in human languages. Nevertheless, it has not gained sufficient attention among linguists. This monograph demonstrates that the comparative study of total reduplication challenges the traditional notion of linguistic universal. Contrary to the belief that total reduplication is almost completely unknown in the linguistic landscape of Europe, it is shown that a sizable group of European languages make ample use of total reduplication (not only for lexical but also for grammatical purposes). This means that the areal-typological map of the Old Continent has to be modified considerably. With special focus on the situation in Europe, the functional and formal aspects which determine the systematic character of total reduplication are presented according to quantitative and qualitative principles. Their importance for general linguistic theory is elaborated upon. The results are evaluated cartographically. The data are drawn from several hundred languages (standard and nonstandard varieties) world-wide. Methodologically, the study relies on a huge parallel literary corpus. Totale Reduplikation ist ein zu Unrecht in der typologischen Sprachforschung wenig beachtetes Phänomen. In dieser Monographie wird nachgewiesen, dass die sprachvergleichende Erforschung von totaler Reduplikation Konsequenzen für das allgemeine Verständnis von sprachlichen Universalien hat. Auch in Europa kann entgegen gängiger Auffassungen totale Reduplikation nachgewiesen werden, wodurch das Bild vom sprachlichen Areal Europa revidiert werden muss. Die funktionale und formale Systematik der totalen Reduplikation wird in qualitativer und quantitativer Hinsicht mit Schwerpunkt auf die europäische Situation detailliert dargestellt und für die allgemeine Theoriebildung fruchtbar gemacht. Die Ergebnisse werden sprachgeographisch mit Hilfe von Isoglossen ausgewertet. Die Daten stammen aus mehreren Hundert Varietäten weltweit.

Content: Review text: "The strenghts of this work in breadth of scope and wealth of data are obvious, and it contributes stimulating ideas and arguments that illustrate the relevance of total reduplication for neary all areas of linguistics. [...] the book is sure to be a launching point for much uture research on this fascinating but understudied phenomenon" Yuni Kim, in: Studies in language, 36 (2012) 2
