Summary/Abstract: The application of generative phonology in Slavic research is still a deplorably rare phenomenon. Attempts have definitely been made to change the situation both by Slavic and non-Slavic scholars (Jakobson, Zhuravlev, Andersen etc.), the most remarkable of which is without doubt B. Velcheva’s pioneering monograph Proto-Slavic and Old Bulgarian Sound Changes. In her book the Bulgarian specialist convincingly proves the applicability of generative phonological methods for diachronic problems, and it cannot be denied that the monograph is a methodological milestone in the history of Slavic diachronic studies.
