Abstract:

Conceptually, the volume focuses on the relationship of the three key notions
that essentially triggered the inception and subsequent realization of this
project, to wit, language contact, grammaticalization, and areal grouping.

Fully concentrated on the areal-typological and historical dimensions of
Slavic, the volume offers new insights into a number of theoretical issues,
including language contact, grammaticalization, mechanisms of borrowing, the
relationship between areal, genetic, and typological sampling, conservative
features versus innovation, and socio-linguistic aspects of linguistic
alliances conceived of both synchronically and diachronically. The volume
integrates new approaches towards the areal-typological profiling of Slavic as
a member of several linguistic areas within Europe, including SAE, the Balkan
Sprachbund and Central European groupings(s) like the Danubian or Carpathian
areas, as well as the Carpathian-Balkan linguistic macroarea. Some of the
chapters focus on structural affinities between Slavic and other European
languages that arose as a result of either grammatical replication or
borrowing. A special emphasis is placed on contact-induced grammaticalization
in Slavic micro-languages
