This long-awaited second edition of Rex Wallace's popular manual of Etruscan has completely overhauled the original edition on the basis of nearly two decades of new scholarship. Like its predecessor, it is designed for classicists, linguists, archaeologists, and interested readers in other disciplines.
With its clear exposition and balanced discussions, Zikh Rasna remains an essential foundation for the study of one of the most important languages and peoples of pre-Roman Italy.
The new edition retains its predecessor's clear and informative exposition of all elements of orthography, grammar, and lexicon, with judicious and balanced handling of scholarly controversies. All of the work's hundreds of illustrative excerpts from inscriptions are provided with a translation and word-by-word grammatical analysis, with whole chapters devoted to a survey of inscriptional genres (100 complete inscriptions with commentary) as well as the entire Aes Cortonense. Zikh Rasna will remain a standard introduction as well as reference work for students and scholars of the Etruscan language for many years to come.
