This important volume incorporates the results of 60 years of scholarship into Greek, Latin, and Indo-European historical grammar (Diachronica, Vol. XIII, No. 2, 1996)
S. has now provided a textbopok and deserves the gratitude of lecturers and students; teaching and learning the history of Latin and Greek and their Indo-European roots should now be made easier. S. has provided a wealth of information and ideas which will help bulk out lecture notes and increase understanding of the subject. (James Clackson, Faculty of Classics, Cambridge, The Classical Review, Vol. XLVI, No. 2 '96)
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.

The non-classical sources for historical discussion are mainly Vedic Sanskrit, Hittite, and Germanic, with occasional butcrucial contributions from Old Irish, Avestan, Baltic, and Slavic. This book accounts for the similarities and differences between Greek and Latin by tracing the prehistoric evolution from their common ancestor, Proto-Indo-European. The features of Proto-Indo-European itself are explained and justified on the basis of comparative and historical linguistics.
