✦ Synopsis

Volume six of Roman Jakobson's Selected Writings, Early Slavic Paths and Crossroads, incorporates forty-five of the author's articles on comparative Slavic studies, the Cyrillo-Methodian tradition and medieval Slavic literatures, written over a sixty-year period (1922-1982). Of these, five articles are published here for the first time, and eight studies have been translated into English especially for this book. Early Slavic Paths and Crossroads complements Slavic Epic Studies (SW IV), which deals with the medieval Slavic oral tradition, in particular The Igor' Tale; together the two volumes contain Jakobson's major contributions to comparative Slavic studies in their medieval aspect.
