Abstract:

This volume is a collection of new writings dealing with some of the Balkan
linguistic varieties spoken in north-eastern, central and southern Italy. It
brings together twenty-two papers, some of which investigate the mutual
influences between each of these Balkan and South Slavic language varieties
and their neighbouring Italian dialects. Other contributions study common
tendencies which do not just pertain to local contacts, but which are of
greater significance for the history of linguistic and cultural contacts in
Italy. All of the chapters here present new empirical findings and reflect the
breadth and diversity of current research in the fields of areal linguistics,
language variation, Balkan dialectology, language contact, types of Balkan
convergences, types of structure transfers, the borrowing of structural
patterns, and directions of grammaticalisation.
