Hello,
I’m interested in finding a book that looks at the history of Europe through the lens of language.
I’m less interested in the specificity of linguistic evolution than in the historical causes for evolution and seperation of languages.
For example why is Basque so different? Or what is the history of Hungarian and Finnish, the only Uralic languages? Again, how come Greek, Armenian and Albanian have no close sister languages?
Any recommendations are appreciated, thanks!
