Abstract

Sait-on qu'en moyenne, il meurt environ 25 langues chaque annee ? Dans cent ans, si rien ne change, la moitie de ces langues seront mortes. A la fin du XXIe siecle, il devrait donc en rester 2 500 environ, et sans doute beaucoup moins encore si l'on tient compte d'une acceleration, fort possible, du rythme de disparition. Certes, comme les civilisations, les langues sont mortelles, et le gouffre de l'histoire est assez grand pour toutes. Pourtant, la mort des langues a quelque chose de tout a fait insolite, et d'exaltant quand nous nous en avisons : les langues sont capables de resurrection ! Mais la vigilance s'impose, faute de quoi toutes sont menacees, y compris le francais. C. H. Claude Hagege est medaille d'or du CNRS, et professeur au College de France. Il est, notamment, l'auteur de L'Enfant aux deux langues, Le Francais et les siecles, qui ont ete d'immenses succes.

Abstract

This volume gathers papers from the first conference ever to be held on the disappearance of writing systems, in Oxford in March 2004. While the invention and decipherment of writing systems have long been focuses of research, their eclipse or replacement have been little studied. Because writing is so important in many cultures and civilizations, its disappearance - followed by a period without it or by replacement by a different writing system - is of almost equal significance to invention as a mark of radical change. Probably more writing systems have disappeared than survived in the last f
