Bibliography of Paul Newman from 1964 onwards
Under these links you will find further studies of Chadic linguistics, as well as another festschrift on the occasion of Paul Newman’s 80th birthday:
This collection of the most important articles with commentaries is quite original form of celebrating a jubilee of the outstanding Scholar and Master of African linguistics. Let us hope that the next stage of his life and splendid scientific career will be marked by a voluminous and equally impressive Festschrift.
