contact linguistics.
Castrenianumin toimitteita 59.
"Facing Finnic" features papers by twelve linguists interested in the
complicated relationships within the Finnic group and its contacts
with neighbouring Indo-European languages. These twelve authors
challenge and re-evaluate the gaps and biases often found in the
traditional literature, by looking at it in a new light, expressing
their views from perspectives of linguistic disciplines like
grammaticalisation theory, typology, and sociolinguistics. The papers
were first presented in the symposium "Facing Finnic" held at the
International Conference of Uralic Languages in Tartu, Estonia in
August 2000. (Mostly English, some German)
