Many languages that are spoken today in Iran will fall silent in the near future. A large number of these languages and dialects have never been recorded or described. Many are at risk of falling out of use as their speakers die or members of younger generations shift to speaking different languages. The speed of these developments has increased dramatically over the past century. Furthermore, since language is closely linked to culture, when a community loses its language, it also loses a great deal of its cultural heritage and early history, including traditions of ceremonies, rituals, myths, poetry, songs, humor, habits, and oratory. These traditions and cultural habits are frequently replaced by the habits of the dominant community. 0This edited volume brings together work by theoretical linguists and field linguists who share a strong commitment to the scientific documentation and investigation of endangered Iranian languages. five chapters of this volume represent the contributors? findings on endangered Iranian languages and dialects found both inside Iran as well as in other countries. Their work deals with a variety of topics, ranging from documentation methods to aspects of philology, morphology, phonology, syntax, and dialectology.

Les langues n'échappent pas à la mondialisation. Certaines sont de plus en plus parlées, d'autres de moins en moins. Selon les lieux, les nécessités, les besoins et les politiques, les individus recherchent celles qui leur sont le plus utile ou le plus profitable : ainsi, le " marché aux langues " n'est pas le même à Dakar, à Hong-Kong, à Barcelone ou à São Paulo. Mais alors, quelles chances peut avoir une langue de subsister sur ce marché, quels risques a-t-elle d'en disparaître ? Cet ouvrage original, nourri d'exemples concrets, jette les bases d'une " politologie linguistique " qui permet de lire la mondialisation à travers son versant linguistique, d'élaborer des hypothèses sur l'évolution de cette situation et d'en explorer les modes possibles de gestion, afin, éventuellement, d'influer sur le sort des langues.
