SUMMARY
"Himalayan Languages contains contributions on Himalayan linguistics written by some of the leading experts in the field. The volume is divided into three parts. First, a general overview is given of the linguistic study of Himalayan languages and language communities. The second part offers synchronic studies of individual languages of the region (the Indo-Aryan languages Shina and Kalasha, and the Tibeto-Burman languages Belhare, Magar, Kinnauri, Classical Tibetan, and Thangmi). The papers in the third part of the volume address topics in historical and areal linguistics, with an emphasis on the Tibeto-Burman languages of the region, discussing grammaticalization processes (in Sunwar, Newar, Seke, Tshangla and Bantawa) and the subgrouping of Tibeto-Burman."Saxena, Anju is the author of 'Himalayan Languages Past and Present', published 2004 under ISBN 9783110178418 and ISBN 3110178419.
