Sommario/riassunto

The area around the Baltic Sea has for millennia been a meeting-place for people of different origins. Among the circum-Baltic languages, we find three branches of Indo-European - Baltic, Germanic and Slavic. This volume studies selected phenomena in the grammars of the circum-Baltic languages.
