Originally published in 1949 and appearing now for the first time in a paperbound edition, Buck's Dictionary remains an indispensable tool for diachronic analysis of the Indo-European languages. Arranged according to the meaning of words, the work contains more than 1,000 groupings of synonyms from the principal Indo-European languages. Buck first tabulates the words describing a particular concept and then discusses their etymological and semantic history, tracing changes in meaning of the root words as well as presenting cases indicating which of the older forms have been replaced by expressions of colloquial or foreign origin.

Since its publication in 1969, Émile Benveniste's Vocabulaire--here in a new translation as the Dictionary of Indo-European Concepts and Society--has been the classic reference for tracing the institutional and conceptual genealogy of the sociocultural worlds of gifts, contracts, sacrifice, hospitality, authority, freedom, ancient economy, and kinship. A comprehensive and comparative history of words with analyses of their underlying neglected genealogies and structures of signification--and this via a masterful journey through Germanic, Romance, Indo-Iranian, Latin, and Greek languages--Benveniste's dictionary is a must-read for anthropologists, linguists, literary theorists, classicists, and philosophers alike. This book has famously inspired a wealth of thinkers, including Roland Barthes, Claude Lévi-Strauss, Pierre Bourdieu, Jacques Derrida, Umberto Eco, Giorgio Agamben, François Jullien, and many others. In this new volume, Benveniste's masterpiece on the study of language and society finds new life for a new generation of scholars. As political fictions continue to separate and reify differences between European, Middle Eastern, and South Asian societies, Benveniste reminds us just how historically deep their interconnections are and that understanding the way our institutions are evoked through the words that describe them is more necessary than ever.

This Textbook on Indo-European Linguistics is designed as an introduction to the field. It presents current topics and questions in Indo-European linguistics in a clear and informative manner. This is the English translation of the eight edition of the work first published by Hans Krahe and it takes account of more recent research. While Krahe only considered phonology and morphology, the edition also includes a comprehensive account of syntax and lexis. Manfred Mayrhofer assisted with the section of phonology; Matthias Fritz wrote the section on syntax and provided support for the project as a whole.

Ce recueil de plus de 30 contributions originales honore la memoire du professeur A.J. Van Windekens, qui fut pendant pres de cinquante ans un des principaux representants des etudes de linguistique comparative. Centree sur le theme de l'etymologie et de l'histoire des mots, cette publication reflete fidelement les orientations actuelles de la recherche historique menee dans des domaines aussi varies que l'armenien, le hittite, le vieil-indien et les langues iraniennes, le tokharien, l'albanais, le grec et le latin, le gotique, les langues celtiques, etc. Le materiel examine se compose avant tout de noms communs et de noms propres, mais egalement de pronoms, de noms de nombre et d'elements proprement grammaticaux. Pour toute ces donnees, la mise en perspective provient du vocabulaire de l'indo-europeen prehistorique, considere en lui-meme ou vu dans ses rapports avec d'autres proto-langues, telles que le semitique commun. Tout au long le livre, une place importante est reservee a la methodologie generale: le statut des reconstructions linguistiques, les lois phonetiques et l'analogie, le contact des langues et l'emprunt lexical. L'ouvrage se clot sur un index vocum exhaustif de plus de vingt pages. Les Studia Etymologica Indoeuropaea s'adressent a tous les specialistes de la linguistique indo-europeenne et generale, en particulier aux orientalistes et aux philologues classiques.
