ByJames A. Matisoff

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
A substantially revised version of Matisoff’s 1986 list of Tibeto-Burman languages, published in Contributions to Sino-Tibetan Studies (John McCoy and Timothy Light (Eds.), Leiden: E. J. Brill), included as an Appendix in this new printing. The work includes 1,294 main entries with thousands of additional cross-references, ethnolinguistic details, and “allonyms” (Matisoff’s term for the various referents used for languages and peoples), including “autonyms” (the name people use for themselves) and “exonyms” (the names other people use to refer to them). Also included are bibliographic citations and statistics relating the names in the work to those used in STEDT online databases.
