Höhle. It consists of two parts. The first part is Topologische Felder, a book-length manuscript that was written in 1983 but was never finished nor published. It is a careful examination of the topological properties of German sentences, including a discussion of typological assumptions. The second part assembles all other published and unpublished papers by Höhle on German grammar. All of these papers were highly influential in German linguistics, in theoretical linguistics in general, and in a specific variant of theoretical linguistics, Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar. Topics covered are clause structure, constituent order, coordination, (verum) focus, word structure, the relationship between relative pronouns and verbs in V2, extraction, and the foundations of a theory of phonology in constraint-based grammar.

Als es erschien, wurde das Buch von einer Fachlinguistik, die sich schon längst auf den positivistischen Weg der Junggrammatiker begeben hatte, nur kühl rezipiert. Ab der Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts wurde das Buch jedoch immer öfter als Bindeglied zwischen den Denkströmungen des 19. Jahrhunderts und dem aufkommenden Strukturalismus des 20. Jahrhunderts betrachtet. Das Buch erschien in zwei Auflagen; die erste zu Gabelentz' Lebzeiten, im Jahr 1891, und die zweite posthum im Jahr 1901, die von Albrecht Graf von der Schulenburg (1865–1902), einem Neffen und Schüler Gabelentz', erheblich überarbeitet und erweitert wurde. Diese kritische Ausgabe bietet zum ersten Mal den Text der beiden Auflagen in einer Form dar, die es dem Leser ermöglicht, die beiden Auflagen leicht zu vergleichen. Dadurch stellt diese Ausgabe eine wertvolle Quelle für historiographische Forschung zum Stand der Linguistik an der Schwelle zum 20. Jahrhundert dar.; Die Sprachwissenschaftis the magnum opus of the German sinologist and linguist Georg von der Gabelentz (1840-1893), a late 19th-century representative of the Humboldtian tradition of linguistic research. The book exists in two versions: a first edition of 1891 and a second posthumous edition of 1901, revised and expanded by Albrecht Graf von der Schulenburg (1865–1902), a nephew and pupil of Gabelentz. This critical edition presents for the first time the text of the two editions in a form that allows them to be easily compared. It represents a valuable resource for historiographical research into linguistics on the eve of the 20th century.

Drawing on an impressive array of historical texts and comparative examples, primarily from Germanic and Romance languages, Jespersen examines the forms, functions, and historical development of negative expressions. The work traces the evolution of negative markers, analyzes how negative prefixes modify word meanings, and reveals coherent patterns in how languages structure negative expressions. Through meticulous analysis of authentic examples, Jespersen documents both common patterns and language-specific variations in negative expressions. His treatment of topics such as double negation, the distinction between special and nexal negation, and the various forms of negative particles provides a methodical account of negation's complexity. The work's enduring importance stems not only from its analysis of the cyclical renewal of negative markers (later termed “Jespersen's Cycle”) but from its comprehensive scope and detailed examination of negative expressions across multiple languages and historical periods. This new critical edition makes this classic work accessible to modern readers while preserving its scholarly depth. The text has been completely re-typeset, with examples presented in contemporary numbered format and non-English examples given Leipzig-style glosses. A new introduction contextualizes Jespersen's achievement and demonstrates its continued significance for current linguistic research.
