Vocabulary of Peculiar Vernacular Bengali Words
"Vocabulary of Peculiar Vernacular Bengali Words" is an essential philological resource compiled by the scholar F. E. Pargiter. This volume serves as a specialized lexicon dedicated to the nuanced and often overlooked vernacular expressions of the Bengali language. Moving beyond standard dictionary definitions, the work focuses on peculiar words-those regionalisms, colloquialisms, and unique linguistic constructs that characterize the spoken tongue of the early 20th century. The collection is meticulously organized to assist scholars, linguists, and students of South Asian languages in understanding the depth and diversity of Bengali speech. Pargiter's expertise in Indian history and culture provides a solid foundation for this linguistic study, making it a valuable tool for those interested in the evolution of regional dialects and the preservation of vernacular traditions. By documenting these specific terms, "Vocabulary of Peculiar Vernacular Bengali Words" offers a window into the cultural and social life of the era, captured through its unique vocabulary. Whether for academic research or a deep interest in the linguistic heritage of South Asia, this work remains a significant contribution to the field of Indic studies.

Purist Pursuits
Language, Global Ideas, and the Creation of Western Armenian in the Ottoman Empire"Purist Pursuits is a groundbreaking study that opens Western Armenian to the methods of the social history of language. Jennifer Manoukian expertly recovers not only the ideologies that shaped the modern vernacular in its formative years, but also the lives of diverse actors who transformed their language into a vast and contentious battleground."—Michael Pifer, University of Michigan "Exciting, extensive, and fine-grained, this work on the development of Armenian situates language discussions in the context of a modernizing literary marketplace, as the Ottoman Empire was affected by Western ideas and new print media. Purist Pursuits shines new light on Armenian history and on nineteenth-century cultural nation-building."—Joep Leerssen, University of Amsterdam
