Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like Carl Darling Buck's Comparative Grammar of Greek and Latin (1933), this book is an explanation of the similarities and differences between Greek and Latin morphology and lexicon through an account of their prehistory. It also aims to discuss the principal features of Indo-European linguistics. Greek and Latin are studied as a pair for cultural reasons only; as languages, they have little in common apart from their Indo-European heritage. Thus the only way to treat the historical bases for their development is to begin with Proto-Indo-European. The only way to make a reconstructed language like Proto-Indo-European intelligible and intellectually defensible is to present at least some of the basis for reconstructing its features and, in the process, to discuss reasoning and methodology of reconstruction (including a weighing of alternative reconstructions). The result is a compendious handbook of Indo-European phonology and morphology, and a vade mecum of Indo-European linguistics--the focus always remaining on Greek and Latin. The non-classical sources for historical discussion are mainly Vedic Sanskrit, Hittite, and Germanic, with occasional but crucial contributions from Old Irish, Avestan, Baltic, and Slavic.

Book excerpt: Forty-one scholars from across the world join in celebrating the work of Brent Vine, whose prodigious oeuvre in Classical and Indo-European linguistics needs no introduction to specialists. The papers in this broad-ranging collection include not just numerous studies of the Classical languages and texts by authorities like A. C. Cassio, Olav Hackstein, Richard Martin, Alan Nussbaum, and Paolo Poccetti, but also work on more far-flung corners of the family, including Lithuanian (Daniel Petit), Lydian (Philomen Probert), Gothic (Jared Klein) and Tocharian (Adam Catt, Ronald Kim), with much more in between.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Latin Grammar for Schools and Colleges: Founded on Comparative Grammar Our aim has been to prepare, within moderate com pass, a complete Latin grammar, to be used from the beginning of the study of Latin until the end of a college course. The whole has been composed from our own point of view, and is, in all essentials, a new and independent work. But we have used freely the standard authorities, as well those of the older scho lastic as of the newer critical and scientific schools. In several points, particularly the topical arrangement of the Syntax, we have followed the outline sketched a few years ago by Professor Allen, of the University of Wisconsin.
