This book presents a new and innovative theory on the origin of the Germanic languages. This theory presents solutions to four pivotal problems in the history of Germanic with critical implications for cultural history: the origin of the Germanic writing system (the Runic alphabet), the genesis of the Germanic strong verbs, the development of the Germanic word order, and etymologies for key elements of the Germanic lexicon. The book proposes that all four problems can be solved if it is hypothesized that over 2,000 years ago the ancestor of all Germanic languages, Proto-Germanic, was in intensive contact with Punic, a Semitic language from the Mediterranean. This scenario is explored by focusing on linguistic data, supported by an interdisciplinary mosaic of evidence. This book is of interest to anyone working on the linguistic and cultural history of the Germanic languages.

Existing accounts of Australian Aboriginal English do not investigate the significant degree of variation found across the continent. This book presents the first description of English spoken on Croker Island, Northern Territory, Australia, in terms of its history, linguistic features and connections to local Aboriginal languages. It demonstrates that English on Croker Island shows an extremely high degree of intra- and inter-speaker variation and embedding in a longstanding multilingual contact situation, both of which challenge existing models of variation and language contact. These results have significant ramifications for how variation is modelled, for our understanding of how postcolonial Englishes develop, as well as for the dynamics of complex contact situations. The book also puts English on Croker Island into a typological context of World Englishes by establishing a profile according to the parameters of the World Atlas of Varieties of English (WAVE). It is of interest to academics interested in Australian Aboriginal English, language contact, World Englishes and Australian Aboriginal languages.

This edited collection highlights the valuable ontological and creative insights gathered from anticipation studies, which orients itself to the future in order to recreate the present. The gathered essays engage with many writers from speculative metaphysics to poetic philosophy, ancient writing systems to the fringes of pataphysics. The book situates itself as a creative intervention in and with various thinkers, designers, artists, scientists and poets to offer insight into ways of anticipating. It brings together philosophical practices for which creativity is both a fundamental area of consideration and a mode of working, a characterization of recent Continental Philosophy which takes a departure from traditional futures studies thinking. This book will be of interest to scholars and research in futures studies, anticipation, philosophy, creative practice and theories about creative practice, as well as the intersections between philosophy, creativity and business.

The Carthaginians reveals the complex culture, society and achievements of a famous, yet misunderstood, ancient people. Beginning as Phoenician settlers in North Africa, the Carthaginians then broadened their civilization with influences from neighbouring North African peoples, Egypt, and the Greek world. Their own cultural influence in turn spread across the Western Mediterranean as they imposed dominance over Sardinia, western Sicily, and finally southern Spain. As a stable republic Carthage earned respectful praise from Greek observers, notably Aristotle, and from many Romans – even Cato, otherwise notorious for insisting that ‘Carthage must be destroyed’. Carthage matched the great city-state of Syracuse in power and ambition, then clashed with Rome for mastery of the Mediterranean West. For a time, led by her greatest general Hannibal, she did become the leading power between the Atlantic and the Adriatic. It was chiefly after her destruction in 146 BC that Carthage came to be depicted by Greeks and Romans as an alien civilization, harsh, gloomy and bloodstained. Demonising the victim eased the embarrassment of Rome’s aggression; Virgil in his Aeneid was one of the few to offer a more sensitive vision. Exploring both written and archaeological evidence, The Carthaginians reveals a complex, multicultural and innovative people whose achievements left an indelible impact on their Roman conquerors and on history.

Das Germanische steht seit den Anfängen der indogermanischen Sprachwissenschaft im Verdacht, von Sprachkontakt betroffen zu sein, und zwar wegen struktureller und lexikalischer Abweichungen vom Indogermanischen. Die Entstehung des Germanischen geht der Frage nach, ob Sprachkontakt mit dem Semitischen der Schlüssel zu den Eigentümlichkeiten des Germanischen ist. Ausgangspunkt ist Theo Vennemanns Theorie der linguistischen und kulturellen Einflüsse des Phönizisch-Punischen, einer nordwestsemitischen Sprache und der Sprache des antiken Karthagos, auf das Frühgermanische. So kann einerseits in der Verbgrammatik des Germanischen der Ausbau des Ablauts und die Entstehung der Gemination bei iterativen und intensiven Verben mit Sprachkontakt erklärt werden. Andererseits erweisen sich mehrere germanische Wörter ohne indogermanische Etymologie als Entlehnungen aus dem Semitischen. Darüber hinaus setzt sich das Buch mit den soziolinguistischen Verhältnissen in Nordwesteuropa in vorhistorischer Zeit auseinander. Im Ergebnis zeigt sich, dass Sprachkontakt mit dem Semitischen bei Fragestellungen weiterhilft, wo die Indogermanistik bislang keine allgemein akzeptierten Lösungen gefunden hat.

„Karthago" schreitet drei Jahrtausende Siedlungsgeschichte ab. Karthago florierte fast sieben Jahrhunderte als punische, weitere sieben Jahrhunderte als eine römische Metropole. In der Nachantike zerfiel es, seine Bauten wurden bis auf den Erdboden abgetragen. Schauplatz eines Kreuzzugs im 13. und eines europäischen Feldzugs im 16. Jahrhundert, wurde es nach 1800 Objekt archäologischer und imperialistischer Begehrlichkeiten. Sitz eines kolonialzeitlichen katholischen Erzbistums, entwickelte sich Karthago im 20. Jahrhundert zu einer kleinstädtischen Kommune, in der der tunesische Präsident seine Residenz hat. Verstärkt seit Beginn einer internationalen Grabungskampagne 1972 hat die Archäologie aus den reduzierten Überresten Merkmale der Stadtgestalt im zeitlichen Wandel herausgearbeitet. „Karthago" schreibt die archäologische Geschichte der Stadt und entfaltet mit Blick auf die großen stratigraphischen Herausforderungen zugleich eine karthagische Geschichte der Archäologie. Für die Fachöffentlichkeit bietet es eine kritische Zusammenschau auf Grundlage der neuesten Forschung, für interessierte Laien einen fundierten Einblick in die Geschichte einer antiken Metropole und die Potenziale moderner archäologischer Analyse.

Dust of Gods is not a book for the professional, the archaeologist, or the historian; they can read their own books. It has been written for the enthusiastic nonacademic. Its for the serious novice, who may wish to ramble through our past, where often history and religion merge into one. Hopefully, a more meaningful perspective may be cast upon ones understanding of mankinds complex roots, how we arrived at our present state, and where our journey may yet take us. From an agglomeration of uncertainties, this book attempts to lift the shroud of mystery and free the truth behind mankinds success.
