Word Index
Jan Terje Faarlund is Professor of Scandinavian Linguistics, University of Oslo. He previously held the same position at the University of Trondheim, and was Professor of Linguistics and Norwegian Studies at the University of Chicago, where he is still affiliated as a research associate in the Department of Linguistics.
"The last comprehensive presentation of Old Norse syntax existing
to date...published in Dano-Norwegian in 1906. Faarlund's
contribution is therefore a welcome edition being the first
comprehensive treatment of Old Norse syntax in a century and being
the very first edition of such a volume in
English. ... The discreet introduction of theoretical nuances (e.g.
referential phrases) and the wealth of empirical data make this
text of great interest not only for historical linguistics but also
for those involved in more theoretical research. ...a tremendous
success."--Linguist List 16.3576
