A Study in the Syntax of the Luwian Language

Více o knize

Focusing on the syntactic structure of Luwian, this book employs a phrase-structural approach influenced by generative grammar to analyze ancient Anatolian corpora, the earliest examples of Indo-European languages. It acknowledges the challenges of applying modern theoretical models to ancient languages while striving to illustrate the key configurational features of Luwian syntax. Through detailed analysis, it aims to enhance understanding of this ancient language's structure and its significance in the broader context of Indo-European studies.
