This book is a collection of articles dealing with various aspects
of the Baltic languages (Lithuanian, Latvian and Latgalian), which
have only marginally featured in the discourse of theoretical
linguistics and linguistic typology. The aim of the book is to
bridge the gap between the study of the Baltic languages, on the
one hand, and the current agenda of the theoretical and typological
approaches to language, on the other. The book comprises 13
articles dealing with various aspects of phonology, morphology,
syntax, semantics, lexicon, and their interactions, plus a lengthy
introduction, whose aim is to outline the state of the art in the
research on the Baltic languages. The contributions are
data-driven, being based on field-work, corpus research, and data
published in the sources not accessible to the general linguistic
audience. On the other hand, all contributions are informed in the
relevant contemporary linguistic theories and in the advances of
linguistic typology. Some of the contributions aim at a more
detailed, accurate and theoretically informed description of the
data, others look at the Baltic material from a more theoretical
point of view, still others assume an areal-typological or contact
perspective.
