In Revivalistics, linguist-revivalist Ghil'ad Zuckermann proposes a new trans-disciplinary field of enquiry surrounding language reclamation, revitalization, and reinvigoration. Through critical analyses of the Hebrew revival and the reclamation of other "sleeping beauty" languages like the Barngarla Aboriginal language of South Australia, Zuckermann explains that the reality of linguistic genesis is far more complex than a family tree system allows. This multifaceted book demonstrates why we should revive languages and provides practical lessons on how to do that.
