Abstract:

Editor’s Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced book.

This book describes the earliest reconstructable stages of the prehistory of
English, focusing specifically on linguistic structure. It outlines the
grammar of Proto-Indo-European, considers the changes by which one dialect of
that prehistoric language developed into Proto-Germanic, and provides a
detailed account of the grammar of Proto-Germanic. In the course of his
exposition Don Ringe draws on a long tradition of work on many languages,
including Hittite, Sanskrit, Greek, Latin, Slavic, Gothic, and Old Norse. This
second edition has been significantly revised to provide a more in-depth
account of Proto-Indo-European, with further exploration of disputed points;
it has also been updated to include new developments in the field,
particularly in the reconstruction of the Proto-Indo-European verb and nominal
inflection. The author also reconsiders some of his original approaches to
specific linguistic changes and their relative chronology based on his recent
research. 

This new edition of the first volume in A Linguistic History of English will
be of central interest to all scholars and students of comparative
Indo-European and Germanic linguistics, the history of English, and historical
linguistics more generally. The second volume, The Development of Old English
by Don Ringe and Ann Taylor, was published by OUP in 2014 (paperback 2016)
