This edited volume offers new insights into the toponomastic manifestations of Danish, French, German, Italian, and Spanish colonialism. The focus is on hitherto unexplored macrotoponyms and microtoponyms. Their structural and functional aspects are described. They are linked to the colonial history of the various nations involved. A general toponomastic framework beyond CoCoTop is presented additionally. Several of the papers mark the starting point of recently initiated new research projects.The volume is of special interest to onomasticians, scholars working in colonial and postcolonial linguistics, and historians of colonialism.Author: Nataliya LevkovychRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
