Xavier Delamarre’s Work on Gaulish Language

Abstract

Gaulish language is by far the best aested Continental Celtic dialect to date. X. Delamarre’s works constitute an invaluable source of information on Gaulish mechanisms of morphology, onomastics, and word-formation. In the following lines, I will examine the most recent of his publications, paying particular aention to linguistic, formational, and phonetic aspects, as well as to purely methodological details.
