Functional Heads Across Time: Syntactic Reanalysis and Change by Barbara Egedi
Functional Heads Across TimeSyntactic Reanalysis and Change\nAuthor(s): Barbara Egedi, Veronika Hegeds\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Oxford University Press, United Kingdom\nImprint: Oxford University Press\nISBN-13: 9780198871538, 978-0198871538\nSynopsis\nThis volume explores the role that functional elements play in syntactic change and investigates the semantic and functional features that are the driving force behind those changes. Structural developments are explained in terms of the reanalysis of parts of the functional sequences in the clausal, nominal, and adpositional domains, through changes in parameter settings and feature specifications. The chapters discuss 'microdiachronic' syntactic changes that often have implications for large-scale syntactic effects, such as word order variation, the emergence (and lexicalization) of syntactic projections, grammaticalization, and changes in information-structural properties. The volume contains both case studies of individual lang.
