The success of Chomsky’s ideas in the United States raises the question of what efforts were made to ‘internationalize’ the theory. This paper, by Frederick J. Newmeyer, addresses that question, at least with respect to Europe. #histlx abral.in/newmeyer

Robert Chambers was an avid collector of Sanskrit mss. His library was bought by Frederick William IV and brought to Germany for research. The catalog of the auction is in the public domain and digitized. #Sanskrit #HistoryOfLinguistics #DigitalHumanities babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=hvd.…

Fun fact: Max Müller's Hindu name (given to him by the pandits) was "Moksha Mûlara": "Giver (ra) of the knowledge (mûla) of final beatitude (moksha)" #Sanskrit #HistoryofLinguistics

It may not look like it, but the script of this inscription is the script that would eventually evolve to become the modern Arabic script. This is the Nabataean Aramaic script, and I wanted to do a little thread on the evolution of its letter shapes. 🧵
