Abstract "This volume presents eight case studies examining diachronic linguistics and language contact, as well as different aspects of language change. The chapters cover a variety of topics and consider the relationship between historical data and linguistic theory. They also examine the diachronic development of linguistic characteristics in different levels of linguistic analysis including historical morpho-syntax, historical phonology, historical pragmatics and historical sociolinguistics. Focusing on common directions of change in various languages, including English, Gothic, Ancient Greek, Eastern Indo-Aryan and Hebrew, the authors provide explanations that reveal the role of internal factors as well as of language contact"-- Provided by publisher.
