Sommario/riassunto

Vowel harmony is a well known phonological phenomenon found in a large number of languages spoken mainly in Eurasia and the African continent. In simple terms, vowel harmony is a law which governs the co-occurrence of vowels within a span of utterance, nearly always the word. The contributions of this volume focus on various (not always uncontroversial) aspects of vowel harmony that include typological investigations, phonetic/acoustic experimental studies, descriptions of individual systems, genetic and historical ramifications, and implications for a variety of theoretical models.

Sommario/riassunto

The book 'The Teutonic Knights: Rise and Fall of a Religious Corporation' by Aleksander Pluskowski explores the history of the Teutonic Order, a prominent military and religious institution founded during the Third Crusade. It traces the Order's origins as a field hospital in Acre to its transformation into a significant territorial power in northeastern Europe. The Teutonic Knights played a crucial role in the Christianization of the Baltic region, establishing fortified convents and engaging in crusades. The book also examines the Order's decline



in the 15th century due to military defeats and the impact of the Reformation, which secularized its branches. This comprehensive history highlights the Order's enduring legacy in European history.
