Elisabeth Rieken – författare

In this volume, nearly forty internationally recognized researchers have come together to celebrate the work of the famous Anatolianist and Indo-Europeanist H. Craig Melchert. The topics range widely, covering not only the grammar and lexicon of Anatolian languages but also Tocharian, Latin, Phrygian, and many others. Some of the essays represent major new contributions to the field that no specialist can afford to overlook. Both long-established scholars such as J. David Hawkins, Anna Morpurgo Davies, Harry A. Hoffner, Jr., Jay Jasanoff, Norbert Oettinger, Calvert Watkins, and the late Roberto Gusmani, as well as younger scholars such as Alexandra Daues, Petra Goedegebuure, Alwin Kloekhorst, Ronald Kim, and Jeremy Rau have contributed the fruits of cutting-edge research in Melchert's honor. A complete bibliography of Melchert's works is included, and the volume closes with a word-index. One colour plate presents a previously unpublished Hieroglyphic Luvian inscription.  Contributions in English, German, Italian.

The contents of the present volume will enhance our understanding of the diachrony of agreement systems and provide a useful starting point for future studies on this both fascinating and intricate field of research.

Der Tawagalawa-Brief (13. Jh. v. Chr.), stellt die bedeutendste Quelle über diplomatische Kontakte zwischen dem Großreich der Hethiter in Kleinasien und dem bezüglich seiner Lage und Bevölkerung (mykenisch oder kleinasiatisch?) ehemals heftig umstrittenen Land Aḫḫiyawa dar. Nach F. Sommers eindrucksvoller Textedition von 1932 haben nun sechs Forscher aus verschiedenen Disziplinen eine Neubearbeitung nach heutigem Forschungsstand erstellt.
