- Description
- Exploration of the interface between research into the Finno-Ugric languages, their history and relatedness, as well as other approaches to the language, history, culture and folklore of Finno-Ugrians, and women's studies. The author describes how gender and linguistic origins interact in the making of national identity: how gender expresses itself in languages lacking grammatical gender: how language description and language planning deal with these issues.
