Description
Morphologies of Asia and Africa. 2 vols. Edited by ALAN S. KAYE. Winona Lake, Indiana: EISENBRAUNS, 2007. Pp. xxvi + 1380. $175. These volumes are the long-awaited follow-up to Alan Kaye's Phonologies of Asia and Africa (Eisenbrauns, 1997). It is unfortunate that Kaye passed away in May 2007, just weeks before they finally appeared, as they represent ten years of his hard work and commitment. Contained in them arc morphological descriptions of forty-six languages, written by forty-three different authors. The languages are just about equally divided between Africa and Asia, though one (Maltese) is technically a European language. Thirty-seven of the forty-six languages fall into the Afroasiatic or Indo-European families: the remaining nine fall into various families of Sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia, and Central Asia. East Asian languages (e.g., Chinese, Korean, Japanese) are excluded altogether. Pointing out this uneven distribution is no criticism; in his introduction (p. xx), Kaye clearly explains his choice of languages, based largely on his own areas of study.
