Дьяконов И. М. [Рецензия:] С. Renfrew. Archaeology and Language. The Puzzle of Indo-European Origins // Петербургское востоковедение. Выпуск 6. СПб.: Центр «Петербургское Востоковедение», 1994. С. 665—668.
On the whole, I have no quarrel with
Renfrew’s general approach to the problem,
especially with such chapters as 1. The I.-E.
Problem in Outline; 2. Archeology and the
Indo-Europeans; 6. Language, Population and
Social Organization — especially there is no
quarrel with the latter chapter which brilliantly
shows the connection between agriculture
and enormous population growth, and of the
latter with language displacement; I also
agree with chapter 10. Indo-European Mythologies.
However, Renfrew’s erudition in linguistics
is insufficient, and in this field his statements
tend to be wrong or, at least, unreliable
(his chapter 3. Lost Languages and
Forgotten Script is based on secondary sources
and full of small errors)...
