Cover of Manfred Kienpointner: Schmetterlinge in den Sprachen der Erde (PDF)

Schmetterlinge sind faszinierende und wunderschöne Geschöpfe. Dieses Buch nähert sich ihnen aus sprachwissenschaftlicher Perspektive. Es handelt von den allgemeinen Namen für Schmetterlinge in 200 Sprachen der Erde. Alle Sprachfamilien sind vertreten. Neben den Namen für Schmetterlinge in 175 Lautsprachen finden auch ihre Bezeichnungen in 13 Gebärdensprachen sowie zwölf künstlichen Sprachen Beachtung.
Dabei steht die lautliche und inhaltliche Beschreibung dieser Namen im Vordergrund: Die Herkunft der Namen, die häufige Lautmalerei bei den Schmetterlingsnamen, metaphorische Motive ihrer Benennung und die Rolle der Schmetterlinge in den verschiedenen Kulturen (Musik, Malerei, Religion) werden ausführlich dargestellt. Die Darstellung der großen Gefährdung vieler Schmetterlingsarten und die Bedrohtheit vieler kleiner Sprachen bilden einen weiteren Schwerpunkt.
