Abstract:

'The Prehistory of the Balto-Slavic Accent' has been written to fill a gap.
The interested non-specialist can easily learn about the complex accent
systems of the individual Baltic and Slavic languages and how they relate to
each other. But the reader interested in the Proto-Balto-Slavic parent system,
and how it evolved from the very different system of Proto-Indo-European, has
few reliable places to turn. The goal of this book is to provide an
accentological interface between Indo-European and Balto-Slavic—to identify
and explain the accent shifts and other early changes that give the earliest
stages of Baltic and Slavic their distinctive prosodic cast.
