An Introduction to the Uralic Languages is a comprehensive examination of one of the world's most diverse and historically significant language families. Published under the auspices of the Center for Research in Languages and Linguistics at UCLA, this volume delves into the intricate linguistic, historical, and cultural tapestry woven by the Uralic languages and their speakers. The book meticulously traces the etymology, grammatical structure, and phonological evolution of the Uralic languages, which include Finnish, Hungarian, Estonian, and the lesser-known Samoyed and Ob-Ugric tongues. This scholarly work situates the Uralic languages within a broader historical context, examining their ancient origins and the complex interplay of cultural and linguistic influences from neighboring Indo-European, Turkic, and Altaic language groups. The text explores themes such as migration patterns, linguistic borrowing, and the sociopolitical factors that have shaped the development and distribution of Uralic-speaking communities across Europe and Asia. Through detailed comparative analyses, the book illuminates the commonalities and distinctive features of these languages, providing a rare window into their shared heritage and individual trajectories. For linguists, anthropologists, and historians, An Introduction to the Uralic Languages offers an authoritative resource on the phonetic systems, syntactic structures, and semantic nuances of this language family. It is equally valuable to those interested in the cultural histories of Uralic-speaking peoples, from the nomadic Samoyeds of Siberia to the Finnic tribes of the Baltic. By blending rigorous scholarship with accessible exposition, this volume establishes itself as a cornerstone in the field of Uralic studies. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1965.
