GARY BRAMMER
reviewed New Comparative Grammar of Greek and Latin on February 28, 2020 New Comparative Grammar of Greek and Latin
This one is a lot of fun. Sihler revisits Carl "Darling" Buck's 1933 original, retaining passages where warranted and updating where needed, to trace the development of both Latin (and, to a lesser extent, the other Italic languages) and Greek from Proto-Indo-European in excruciating phonological and morphological detail, drawing comparisons not just to each other but to a formidable number of other IE languages'just the ones with their own indexes number eighteen (or more, since closely related languages are combined in a few cases'though in fairness, the Albanian index consists of two data). Along the way he provides a shockingly good introduction to PIE itself, though as concepts are introduced when they make sense in the context of the book rather than in a way that makes the most sense in their own right, a modest former exposure will be helpful.
The result is a truly incredible piece of work well worth the time of any classicist, linguist, or collector of etymology, both to read cover to cover and to keep as a reference work. A solid prior understanding of both languages isn't optional, but it's worth learning Greek just for this book.
