Japhetic theory is a term used to describe a linguistic theory developed by the Soviet linguist Nicholas Marr Nikolay Yakovlevich Marr 1864&ndash 1934 . In linguistics it was compared Citation needed date April 2010 by critics to Lysenkoism in biology a theory that was promoted and supported for ideological rather than scientific reasons, because it was thought to represent proletarian science as opposed to bourgeois science. Term Marr adopted the term Japhetic , from Japheth , the name of one of the sons of Noah , in order to characterise his theory that the South Caucasian languages Kartvelian languages of the Caucasus area were related to the Semitic language s of the Middle East named after Shem , Japheth s brother . Marr postulated a common origin of Caucasian, Afro Asiatic Semitic Hamitic , and Basque language s. This initial theory pre dated the October revolution . In 1917, Marr enthusiastically endorsed the revolution, and offered his services to the new Soviet regime. He was soon accepted as the country s leading linguist. Theory Under the Soviet government Marr developed his theory to claim that Japhetic languages had existed across Europe before the advent of the Indo European languages . They could still be recognised as a substratum over which the Indo European languages had imposed themselves. Using this model, Marr attempted to apply the Marxist theory of class struggle to linguistics, arguing that these different strata of language corresponded to different social classes. He even claimed that the same social classes in widely different countries spoke versions of their own languages that were linguistically closer to one another than to the speech of other classes who supposedly spoke the same language. This aspect of Marr s thinking was an attempt to extend the Marxist theory of international class consciousness far beyond its original meaning, by trying to apply it to language. Marr also insisted that the notion that a people are united by common ... more details
