Special issue zu Ukrainian Linguistics (Hg. von Barbara Sonnenhauser, Hanne Eckhof und Egbert Fortuin)

In der Zeitschrift Russian Linguistics gibt es ein Special issue zu "Ukrianian Linguistics". Die Beiträge sind alle online zugänglich.

Die Herausgeber:innen Barabara Sonnenhauser, Hanne Eckhoff und Egbert Fortuin schreiben zum Special issue: "Russia’s war against Ukraine threatens its people and its existence as an independent state. Russia’s war threatens Ukraine’s cultural heritage by denying its history and its language. Language is being used as a weapon. In face of this aggression, a journal such as Russian Linguistics cannot remain silent. As linguists we are committed to the principles of science, based on empirical observations. For us as Slavic linguists, it is a truism to consider Russian as one among a wealth of Slavic languages and as a member of the East Slavic branch, together with Ukrainian and Belarusian. Recognizing this diversity is what the journal’s subtitle stands for: International Journal for the Study of Russian and other Slavic Languages. As editors we want to do our part to promote knowledge about the Ukrainian language and Ukrainian linguistics. This issue is therefore devoted in its entirety to Ukrainian linguistics."
