Abstract:

The "disconnects" between Hittite and the other early Indo-European
languages have been extensively explored, and scholars have realized
that the conventional picture of the parent language must be modified
to account for the facts of Hittite. Jay Jasanoff proposes the most
thorough and systematic resolution of the problem yet published,
putting forth a revolutionary model of the Proto-Indo-European verbal
system.
