Szeverényi Sándor, Khabtagaeva Bayarma (Eds.). Uralic and Siberian Lexicology and Lexicography: Proceedings of the 4th Mikola Conference14-15, November 2014

University of Szeged, 2017. — 232 p. — (Studia uralo-altaica 51).The 4th Mikola Conference was organized at the Finno-Ugric Department of the University of Szeged on November 13–14, 2014, in commemoration of the memory of Tibor Mikola, chair of the department for a quarter of a century and remembered primarily as a scholar of Samoyedic languages.
Despite compiling an Enets dictionary and creating the basis for the Nganasan morphological dictionary, Tibor Mikola is not remembered as a lexicologist or lexicographer, although, as his works demonstrate well, he was concerned with such issues, from both descriptive and historical perspectives.
“Uralic” and “Siberian” in the name of the conference and the title of the present volume refer to the fact their focus goes beyond Uralic language to include other indigenous Siberian languages as well. Such a broader focus of the volume symbolically signals that Tibor Mikola always paid attention to research into other Siberian languages and also regarded issues of language contact and typology to be of great importance in his work.
