To ThisVolume Introduction This volume focuses on the inherently heterogeneous natureoflanguage(s) as seen from the perspectiveofvariationist linguistics and contact linguistics, which became establishedand internationally recognized sub-disciplines of (socio-) linguistics during the latter half of the 20th century. Over the last few years, each paradigmhas considerably broadened the spectrum of the topics under inves- tigation, however there has not yet been an extensiveand satisfactory exchange between the twoscientific fields. An inter(sub)disciplinary meeting in the Italian-speaking Swiss Canton of Ticino, organizedbythe University of Genevaand Austrian Academy of Sciences, wasexpected to contributetoanamendment of these unfavorable circumstances by assembling young and experienced researchers from the areas of variationist and contact linguistics and by creatingaplatform for discursiveexchange and future cooperation between these twolinguistic fields. This volume is one of the scientific impacts resulting from the homonymous International Conference “VARIATIONist Linguistics meets CONTACT Lin- guistics” which took place at the Congress Center Monte Verità in Ascona from May 20–23, 2018 (for more details, see the conference report by Pamela Goryczka and Virginie Gremaud in this volume). Selected (and peer-reviewed) papers published in the present book—for the most part—draw upon talks held during the conference. Areas of Research Both variationist linguistics and contact linguistics arehighly interdisciplinary research fields.They havebeenprogrammaticallyinfluenced by and havein- spired other linguistic sub-disciplines (including: quantitativelinguistics, corpus linguistics, historical linguistics, dialectology, sociolinguistics, ethnolinguistics © 2020, Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co. KG, Göttingen ISBN Print: 9783847111443 – ISBN E-Lib: 9783737011440 8 Alexandra N. Lenz /Mateusz Maselko or so-called cultural linguistics, linguistic typology, psycholinguistics, perceptual linguistics, gender linguistics, lexicography,pragmatics, contrastivelinguistics) and neighboring disciplines (including: sociology, psychology, geography, his- tory, anthropology, colonial studies, theology, literary studies, political and legal sciences). Although contact and variationist linguistics are closely related to other scientific areas, they clearly addresstheirown different linguistic aspects and employ distinct methods. Contact linguistics investigates the use of languages,which—like their speakers—are socially in contact with each other. This disciplineisexplored through different stages—varying according to phenomena, area, and period— of the language contact process, including its inception,evolution, and results. At the same time, it considers the intralinguistic and extralinguisticparameters and control factors that determine the level of intensity of interactionand, therefore, of potential influence. Language contact occurs in alarge number of phenomena, including:language convergence, borrowing, relexification, hybrid structures development, adoption, as well as degradation, and leveling of morphological and grammatical features, code-switching,stratal influence, and language shift. It can lead to the emergence of new varieties (such as pidgins, creoles,mixed- language varieties,interdialects—especially so-called language ‘island’ varieties’ or linguistic ‘enclaves’,minority languages, ethnolects, guest workers’ varieties, xenolects) or even fully-developed languages. Not least of all, awide range of interestsinlanguage contact studies includes (‘external’)multilingualism—be that in the context of language border areas, non-monolingual communities, migration,orthe workplace (cf. Bakker /Matras 2013; Darquennes /Salmons / Vandenbussche 2019; Hickey 2010; Hogan-Brun /O’Rourke 2019; Matras 2009; Myers-Scotton 2002; Plewnia /Riehl 2018; Riehl 2012; Thomason/Kaufman 1988). The main focus of contact linguistics is on exploring the interactionbe- tween differentlanguages, which has caused thislinguistics sub-disciplinetobe referred to as interlingual contact studies. In contrast, the mutual influenceof variousvarieties representing the same language—so-called intralingual contact —is only
