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 translation is based on the 8th edition of the work first published by Hans Krahe (6th edition 1985) and it takes account of more recent research. While Krahe only considered phonology and morphology, the textbook 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.

Michael Meier-Brügger holds the Chair in Comparative and Indo-European Linguistics at the Free University of Berlin.

Matthias Fritz is Research Fellow in the Department of Comparative and Indo-European Linguistics at the Free University of Berlin.

Manfred Mayrhofer is Professor Emeritus of Comparative and Indo-European Linguistics at the University of Vienna.
