whom are internationally renowned scholars in their specialisms, represent a
unique breadth of subject areas and theoretical approaches. Each of them also
has a special interest in particular languages and language families. In their
research, members of the department combine the advancement of theoretical
approaches with a strong concern for their empirical and methodological
foundations. For more information about the research interests of individual
