Recenzje

"[...] den Wert diesen schönen Buchs, das ohne Zweifel als ein wichtiger Meilenstein der balto-slavischen Akzentologie zu betrachen ist"
Daniel Petit in: Historische Sprachforschung 123/2010

"I cannot emphasize enough the importance of this volume for moving the discussion forward in BSl accentology as a whole. O's monograph is not only clearly written and well argued, but the author shows an exemplary independence of judgment and freshness of perspective throughout, on large questions as well as matters of detail."
Ronald I. Kim in: LINGUIST List 21.1909
