De Gruyter Varieties of Post-classical and Byzantine Greek
Book SynopsisLinguistic varieties such as female speech, foreigner talk, and colloquial language have not gone unnoticed when it comes to Classical Greek, but little is known about later periods of the Greek language. In this collective volume leading experts in the field outline some of the most important varieties of Post-classical and Byzantine Greek, basing themselves on a broad range of literary and documentary sources, and advancing a number of innovative methodologies. Close attention is paid to the linguistic features that characterize these varieties, with in-depth discussions of lexical, morpho-syntactic, orthographic, and metrical variation, as well as the interrelationship between these different types of variation. The volume thus offers valuable insights into the nature of Post-classical and Byzantine Greek, laying the foundation for future studies of linguistic variation in these later stages of the language, while at the same time providing a point of comparison for Classical Greek scholarship

Museum Tusculanum Press West Iranian Dialect Materials, 2: Short Stories
Book SynopsisWith the second volume of West Iranian Dialect Materials thirteen short-stories in Luri (Baxtiari) dialect from the collection of D. L. Lorimer are published. The stories appear in transcription, and are followed by translation and an extensive glossary. In arranging the glossary, as in volume one, special attention has been attached to the ethymology of the important words. Lorimer''s large linguistic records from southern Iran, collected in 1906, 1908 and 1913-14, consist of valuable materials and can be divided into several sections such as ethnographic materials, folk-stories, inter-tribal relations, history of the Baxtiaris, poetry and the like. This volume will be followed by other volumes covering the publication of all of Lorimer''s materials in Luri (Baxtiari).
