Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Very little to no wear. Quite clean. 'Nicolaas van Wijk (1880-1941) was the founder of Slavic studies in the Netherlands and one of the greatest Slavists in general. This book describes for the first time how a scholar of the Dutch language, whose etymological dictionary of the Dutch language is…still considered the best of its kind, was appointed in 1913 to the newly created Chair in Slavic languages at Leiden University and built up a tremendous reputation . . . His commitment to materially helping all he could from an Eastern Europe torn apart by the First World War and its aftermath was exceptional. His fascination with all things Russian is a background theme that played throughout his life and even at his death.' etc. Illustrated. 341 pages. Studies in Slavic and General Linguistics, vol. 31. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Book.
