Life and career

He has authored more than 20 articles and two books on Indo-European linguistics. His main contributions concern the etymology, phonology and morphology of Proto-Indo-European and Indo-European languages, especially Latin and Greek. His book on the Latin verbal system was favorably received, as shown by positive reviews by the American linguist Andrew Miles Byrd (University of Kentucky) in Kratylos[5]^{,[N 1]} and by the French linguist Jean-Paul Brachet (Paris-Sorbonne University) in the Bulletin de la Société de Linguistique de Paris.[6]

He was invited in 2015 by the French popular science journal La Recherche to represent the point of view of linguists on the Indo-European theory in a debate with the French archeologist Jean-Paul Demoule,[7] following the publication of a book in which the latter expresses skepticism about the Indo-European hypothesis.[8]

He also published two novels in French, in 2010 and 2017. A Czech translation of his first novel, L'Héritage de Glace, was published in 2012.^{[citation needed]}

Along with linguist Xavier Delamarre, he is the founding editor of the French academic journal Wékwos dedicated to Indo-European studies (founded in 2014).[9]

Notes

1.^ For instance, Andrew Byrd states in his review that "G[arnier] has done an admirably thorough job in his analysis of the Latin verbal system and has successfully convinced me that "(i)l y a en latin tout un vaste héritage fort archaïque que ne reflète pas du tout la doctrine reçue, telle qu'elle fut professée par les fondateurs de la discipline indo-européenne, et où l'on tient le latin pour une langue innovante" [… that Latin displays a vast amount of archaic inherited data, which is very different from what is usually said, following the teachings of the founders of Indo-European studies who viewed Latin as an innovative language]."
