On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the death of the Ukrainian linguist G. Y. Shevelov, this article attempts to evaluate his contribution to historical -comparative linguistics. Commenting on his pivotal work A Prehistory of Slavic: The Historical Phonology of Common Slavic (1964/1965), we mainly focus on how Shevelov understood the role of language contact in the development of languages in general and in the phonological development of Common Slavic in particular. His approach is analyzed with the help of our concept of para-digms of historical-comparative linguistics, working with the conventionalist, revisionist, and revolutionary paradigms.
