Reduplication beyond the word level : a cross linguistic view / The morphosyntax of non-iconic reduplications: a cast study in eastern Gbe and Surinam creole / Verb focus in Haitian: from lexical reiteration to predicate cleft / Verb doubling in Breton and Gungbe: obligatory exponence at the sentence level / NN constructions in modern Hebrew / Attenuative verbal reduplication in Mauritian: a morph-semantic approach / Reduplication in São Tomense: issues at the syntax-semantics interface / Reiteration in Pichi: forms, functions and areal-typological perspectives / Enoch O.

This is a new contribution to a theory of reiteration in natural languages, with a special focus on creoles. Reiteration is meant to denote any situation where the same form occurs (at least) twice within the boundaries of some linguistic domain. By including two case studies bearing on Hebrew and Breton alongside five chapters on creole languages (Surinam creole, Haitian, Mauritian, São Tomé and Pitchi), this volume brings counter-evidence to the claim that reiteration phenomena are particularly typical of creoles. And by exploring the syntax of reiteration alongside its morphology, the autho.
