Abstract:

This volume applies a diachronic perspective to the verb and mainly deals with
typological change affecting tense, aspect, mood and modality in a variety of
Indo-European languages (Latin, Romance, Celtic, Germanic, Slavic,
Indo-Iranian, Hittite, and Semitic) and the non-Indo-European Turkic,
Amerindian and some Australian languages. The analyses of the structural
changes and the interchange between the different grammatical categories that
cause them which are presented in the chapters of this volume yield
astonishing results. The diachronic perspective combined with a comparative
approach provides profound knowledge of the typology of the verb and other
typological issues and will serve researchers, as well as advanced and
beginning of linguistics students in a way that has rarely been encountered
before.
