It starts with a presentation of the languages of the family (from English and the other Germanic languages, the Celtic and Slavic languages, Latin, Greek and Sanskrit through Armenian and Albanian) and a discussion of the culture and origin of the Indo-Europeans, the speakers of the Indo-European proto-language, who are considered to have lived in what is today the Ukraine.The book gives an introduction into the nature of language change and the methods of reconstruction of older language stages, with many examples (from the Indo-European languages). A full description is given of the sound changes, which makes it possible to follow the origin of the different Indo-European languages step by step. This is followed by a discussion of the development of all the morphological categories of Proto-Indo-European.<br />The book presents the latest in scholarly insights, like the laryngeal and glottalic theory, the accentuation, the ablaut patterns, and these are systematically integrated into the treatment.<br />While the book presents a large amount of material and discusses many principles and the relevant terminology, it is written in a very readable and lucid style. Use of the book is facilitated by an appendix on phonetics, a glossary, full indexes, and an extensive bibliography. The book can be used as a first introduction to the field, and at the same time brings the reader to the current moment of research. 05 Beekes's handbook is perhaps the most thorough and imaginative study of Proto-Indo-European since Meillet's <i>Introduction &#224; l'&#233;tude comparative des langues indo-europ&#233;ennes</i> (1937). The Times Literary Supplement, Oct. 19-25, 1990 on the original Dutch version 05 Le manuel de R. S. P. Beekes est aujourd'hui le meilleur livre que l'on puisse recommander aux personnes qui, ne connaissant pas la grammaire historique et comparative, voudraient s'informer de ce qu'est au juste la linguistique indo-européenne. C'est, en même temps qu'un livre de haute qualité scientifique. Charles de Lamberterie, in Bulletin de la Société Linguistique, 1997 05 B's book has many good qualities that make it attractive for an introductory course in either historical and comparative linguistics or specifically Indo-European linguistics. Steven Schäufele, in Studies in Language, 1998 05 With its original approach, with its keen awareness of the latest developments in theory and application, with the rigorous systematic presentation of the facts in a lucid style, this handbook presents what is probably the most up-to-date and manageable introduction to Indo-European presently available.

Beekes Beekes, Robert S.P. Robert S.P. Beekes University of Leiden 01 eng 398 xxii 376 LAN009000 v.2006 CFF 2 24 JB Subject Scheme LIN.COMP Comparative linguistics 24 JB Subject Scheme LIN.HL Historical linguistics 05 06 01 The book gives a comprehensive introduction to Comparative Indo-European Linguistics, the first to appear in English. It starts with a presentation of the languages of the family (from English and the other Germanic languages, the Celtic and Slavic languages, Latin, Greek and Sanskrit through Armenian and Albanian) and a discussion of the culture and origin of the Indo-Europeans, the speakers of the Indo-European proto-language, who are considered to have lived in what is today the Ukraine.The book gives an introduction into the nature of language change and the methods of reconstruction of older language stages, with many examples (from the Indo-European languages). A full description is given of the sound changes, which makes it possible to follow the origin of the different Indo-European languages step by step. This is followed by a discussion of the development of all the morphological categories of Proto-Indo-European.<br />The book presents the latest in scholarly insights, like the laryngeal and glottalic theory, the accentuation, the ablaut patterns, and these are systematically integrated into the treatment.<br />While the book presents a large amount of material and discusses many principles and the relevant terminology, it is written in a very readable and lucid style. Use of the book is facilitated by an appendix on phonetics, a glossary, full indexes, and an extensive bibliography. The book can be used as a first introduction to the field, and at the same time brings the reader to the current moment of research. 05 Beekes's handbook is perhaps the most thorough and imaginative study of Proto-Indo-European since Meillet's <i>Introduction &#224; l'&#233;tude comparative des langues indo-europ&#233;ennes</i> (1937). The Times Literary Supplement, Oct. 19-25, 1990 on the original Dutch version 05 Le manuel de R. S. P. Beekes est aujourd'hui le meilleur livre que l'on puisse recommander aux personnes qui, ne connaissant pas la grammaire historique et comparative, voudraient s'informer de ce qu'est au juste la linguistique indo-européenne. C'est, en même temps qu'un livre de haute qualité scientifique. Charles de Lamberterie, in Bulletin de la Société Linguistique, 1997 05 B's book has many good qualities that make it attractive for an introductory course in either historical and comparative linguistics or specifically Indo-European linguistics. Steven Schäufele, in Studies in Language, 1998 05 With its original approach, with its keen awareness of the latest developments in theory and application, with the rigorous systematic presentation of the facts in a lucid style, this handbook presents what is probably the most up-to-date and manageable introduction to Indo-European presently available.
