Diachrone Studien zur Kontaktzone zwischen Kelten und Germanen by Ludwig Rübekil
From the oxbox books site:
This is a detailed and heavily annotated analysis of the geographical and cultural point of contact
between Celts and Germans during the Iron Age and Roman periods. Rübekil draws on contemporary
Roman epigraphic and literary sources as well as linguistics and place-name evidence to examine the
ethnology and ethnography of the tribes, place and people names, contacts with Caesar, Celtic and
Germanic mythology and religious practices, language and speech. The study also reassesses previous
research on the subject. Much of the study comprises a technical linguistic analysis of the origins of the
German language. German text. 498p (SBph 699, OAW 2002) 3700131240 Pb £68.00
Unfortunately I don't read German, except at the painful, look up each individual word and guess level. Has anyone read this and care to give comments on it?
