Purist Pursuits: Language, Global Ideas, and the Creation of Western Armenian in the Ottoman Empire
Jennifer Manoukian
Purist Pursuits chronicles how and why Armenians in the Ottoman Empire fashioned a new language called Western Armenian. Tracing its rise from the eighteenth to the early-twentieth centuries, Jennifer Manoukian studies the evolution of an ever-changing ideology that undergirded all phases of the language's formation: linguistic purism.
