This volume, dedicated to Ülo Sirk, one of the most prominent Russian
Austronesianists, includes about twenty papers devoted to languages
belonging to the Austronesian family. The contributions to the volume cover
both synchronic and diachronic issues and explore various levels:
phonology, grammar, text structure, etc. While presenting both new data and
new interpretations, the collection of papers may be of interest for
scholars of different disciplines: linguists and philologists,
anthropologists, historians.
