Orsat Ligorio (Serbo-Croatian: [ǒrsat lǐgoːrio]; Serbian: Орсат Лигорио; born 14 July 1985) is a Croatian-Serbian linguist who is a professor of Ancient Greek and Sanskrit at the University of Belgrade and an author of a number of publications in Indo-European etymology.
Life
Ligorio was born in 1985 in Dubrovnik, Yugoslavia. He obtained his MA in Classics and Linguistics from the University of Zagreb in 2009.
In 2010, he moved to the Netherlands where he would obtain his PhD from the University of Leiden in 2016.[1] In 2014, he obtained another PhD from the University of Zadar.[2]
He lives in Belgrade, is married, and works at the University of Belgrade teaching Ancient Greek and Sanskrit.[3]
Work
Ligorio has published two PhD theses and around 30 papers, which mostly focus on Indo-European and Romance linguistics. His work mostly deals with the topics in the history of the Serbo-Croatian accentuation, the reconstruction of the Phrygian and Dalmatian languages, and the reconstruction and etymology of the Indo-European proto-language.
In terms of Indo-European linguistics, he was influenced by his supervisors, Alexander Lubotsky and Frederik Kortlandt of Leiden University, and adheres to the so-call Leiden School of reconstruction.
