Description

The accentual systems of the Baltic and Slavic languages continue to intrigue scholars of general and historical linguistics.

They play an important role in the reconstruction of the linguistic ancestor of Baltic and Slavic, but also in the typological study of accentual systems.

This volume contains contributions related to the accentology of the Baltic and Slavic languages by leading scholars in the field.

They discuss the accentual systems that are attested in Baltic and Slavic dialects and texts, and the historical developments that led to these systems.

The volume further contains contributions on similar accentual systems and developments in other languages, such as Abkhaz and the Mordvinian languages.

A number of papers also deal with the role of the Balto-Slavic accents in the reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European.

The volume reflects the progress that has been made in the field of Baltic and Slavic accentuation during the last decades.

It forms a major source for anyone interested in the latest developments and insights in the study of accentuation.
