The Indo-European Dialects

By Antoine Meillet

Book Overview

Tracing the echoes of ancient tongues--where language meets history.

This work translates Meillet's classic philological study from the original 1908 French edition, which itself was based upon a course Meillet delivered at the Coll ge de France in 1906-1907. This edition includes the author's new introduction for the 1922 edition. Indexes, missing from the French editions, have been added by the translator for the convenience of the reader, as have bibliographical references to salient works from the half-century after original composition.
