Summary:

Several Indo-European languages are spoken in Iran, but they have tended to be studied separately, with little opportunity to delve into comparisons or interactions between them. Here linguists from Europe, the US, and Iran look at historical and comparative Iranian syntax, the morpho-syntax of lesser-known Iranian languages, and the linguistics of Modern Persian. The topics include differential object makings in Bactrian, the counterfactual mood in Iranian, syntactic and semantic properties of particle-converbs in Iron Ossetic, finite control in Persian, and the bilingual speech of highly proficient Persian-French speakers. The 13 studies were selected from papers at a September 2009 conference on Iranian linguistics in Paris. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co.
