Selective bibliography of the studies on the Kazakh language (original) (raw)

The present bibliography is a selection of studies on the Kazakh language, linguistics and some closely related topics from the first authoritative work by Il’minskij (1861) onwards. Attempt was made to include as many impor-tant studies as possible, but also some publications of second and further importance. The bibliography does not claim to be all-inclusive. The earlier items were selected by a subjective impact factor, i.e. how often a given stu-dy is referred to or cited in Kazakh linguistics, but in the case of new publica-tions it was intended to include all publications relevant to the field. How-ever, among multiple textbooks and other practical aids only those were in-cluded which were assessed as the most important. In addition, the biblio-graphy also lists some important texts editions.
