Part of the Languages of the Ancient Near East series

Hardback

Pre-Order

Description

Since its publication in 2008, A Grammar of the Hittite Language has been the definitive Hittite reference and teaching tool.

This new edition brings Hoffner and Melchert’s essential work up to date, incorporating the dramatic progress achieved in the field over the past fifteen years. Heavily revised and expanded, the second edition recasts the discussion of topics to better serve the linguistically informed reader.

A reorganized presentation of the synchronic facts makes them accessible to both Hittitologists and linguists interested in Hittite for historical or typological purposes.

Part 1 provides a thorough overview of Hittite grammar that is grounded in abundant textual examples.

Part 2 is a tutorial that guides students through a series of graded lessons with illustrative sentences for translation.

The tutorial is keyed to the reference grammar and includes extensive updated notes.

Taken together with Part 2: Tutorial, which guides students through a series of graded lessons keyed to this reference grammar, the work remains the most comprehensive and detailed Hittite grammar ever produced.
