The volume encompasses a wide range of topics, including the principles of the comparative method, sound laws, language change, and the reconstruction of proto-languages. It features contributions from prominent linguists such as August Schleicher, Holger Pedersen, and Leonard Bloomfield, offering diverse perspectives and methodologies in the study of linguistic history and relationships. By presenting these foundational texts, Keiler's anthology provides readers with a thorough understanding of the development and application of historical and comparative linguistic techniques. It remains a valuable reference for those exploring the complexities of language evolution and the connections between different linguistic families.
