Abstract:

Diachronic linguistics has been experiencing a strong revival during the last
few decades, since an increasing number of researchers have assumed that
evolutionary and historical factors must be considered to properly understand
how natural languages work. This book offers new data and insights on some of
the research lines which are currently being developed within the framework of
diachronic language research. The papers brought together in this volume are
characterized both by their originality and by their methodological diversity;
the reader will thus find herein theoretical as well as empirical works,
undertaken from various perspectives of analysis (diachronic cognitive
semantics, grammaticalization theory, discursive traditions, historical
phraseology, etc.). The final outcome is an eclectic volume which offers
valuable information for every reader, regardless of whether they are
experienced linguists or junior researchers willing to know the latest
epistemological advances in this discipline.
