The first book to provide a rigorous and comprehensive view of the
linguistic divisions of early Europe, Asia Minor, Northern India,
and Chinese Turkestan. The unifying topic "Ancient Indo-European
Dialects" was chosen with a view to utilizing to best advantage the
many competences of the contributors int eh extinct languages and
language groups of early Europe, the Near East, and Central Asia.
In this book each specialist treats the subdivision particularly
suited to his research interest, yet is always conscious of and
conversant with the entire sweep and continuity oft he
Indo-European language area. It is an effort at delimiting the
historically and methodologically demonstrable subgroupings,
including a critique of such time-worn combination as Italo-Celtic
and Balto-Slavic, and incorporating the principles of modern
dialectology in a diachronic application. This title is part of UC
Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of
California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest
minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist
dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed
scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology.
This title was originally published in 1966.
