The Kenneth E. Naylor Memorial Lecture Series in South Slavic Linguistics

The Balkan Linguistic League, “Orientalism,” and Linguistic Typology

by Howard I. Aronson

Pp. xii + 37 ISBN 0-9747927-2-1

Paperback, $9.95 (web price), $14.00 (list price)


In this lucid work, renowned University of Chicago linguist Howard Aronson contests the usual view of the Balkan linguistic league as typologically isolated and geographically sharply defined, and instead argues that it is better understood in terms of structural features distributed in a series of overlapping areas, each of which extends also outside of the traditionally defined linguistic area of the Balkans.
