This book presents a systematic and detailed analysis of Caspian linguistics, contributing new perspectives to Western scholarship. The range of the essays represents a wide array of sub-themes under the rubric of Caspian languages and linguistics, and traces connections between linguistic patterns and sociocultural transformations across Caspian societies. In doing so this work investigates the geographical, lexical, grammatical, and phonological characteristics of Caspian language families, spoken in the south and west of the Caspian Sea region. Engaging with multiple dialects in the region, the book draws upon the complex, multifarious relations that exist between lifestyle and word-usage. It is relevant to linguistics interested in West Asian languages and the various related areas of sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, cultural linguistics, and historical linguistics.
