                               Abstract:

   How and why do changes happen when and where they do? Is it possible
to explain changes that occurred centuries ago? These are the central
questions addressed in this book, in which the author argues that the
development of numerous features of medieval (and modern) Spanish can
best be explained as the results of koineization, a process in which
mixing among speakers of different dialects leads to the rapid
formation of a new mixed and generally simplified variety. The book
includes a complete introduction to koineization and detailed study of
three stages of dialect mixing in medieval Spanish.

                               Contents:

1. Introduction
2. Koines and koineization
3. The Burgon phase
4. The Toledo phase
5. The Seville phase
6. Conclusions
