Ritt, Nikolaus.

Selfish Sounds and Linguistic Evolution :A Darwinian Approach to Language Change.[electronic resource]. - Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2004. - 343 p.

Cover; Half-title; Title; Copyright; Contents; Figures; Preface; 1 Introduction; 1.1 The benefits of language; 1.2 …its shortcomings; 1.3 …and ways of studying it; 2 The historical perspective; 2.1 Evidence of language change; 2.2 Language as a changing object; 3 Approaching ‘language change’; 3.1 Preliminaries; 3.2 Establishing basic assumptions; 3.3 What ‘language change’ must represent; 3.4 Reconstructing a particular ‘phonological change’; 4 The Darwinian approach; 4.1 A linguist’s view of evolutionary biology; 5 Generalising Darwinism; 5.1 The temptations of metaphorical transfer

This book takes an exciting new perspective on language change, by explaining it in terms of Darwin's evolutionary theory. Nikolaus Ritt shows how the constituents of language can be regarded as mental patterns, or 'memes', which copy themselves from one brain to another when communication and language acquisition take place.
