Abstract:

Although usage-based linguistics emphasises the need for studies of language
change to take frequency effects into account, there is a lack of research
that tries to systematically model frequency effects and their relation to
diffusion processes in language change. This monograph offers a diachronic
study of the change in Spanish perfect auxiliary selection between Old and
Early Modern Spanish that led to the gradual replacement of the auxiliary ser
‘be’ with the auxiliary haber ‘have’. It analyses this process in terms of the
interaction between gradience, gradualness, and the conserving effects of
frequency and persistence in language change. The study contributes to the
theory and methodology of diachronic linguistics, additionally offering
insights on how to explain synchronic grammatical variation both within a
language and between languages. The book is of interest to the fields of
Spanish and Romance linguistics, syntax, as well as historical and
variationist linguistics.
