商品描述

This volume collects ten studies that propose modern methodologies of analyzing and explaining language change in the case of various morpho-phonological and morpho-syntactic characteristics. The studies were first presented in the fourth, fifth and sixth workshops at the "Language Variation and Change in Ancient and Medieval Europe" summer schools, organized on the island of Naxos, Cyclades, Greece and online between 2019 and 2021. The book is divided into two parts that both focus on modern tools and methodologies of analyzing and accounting for language change. The first part focuses on common directions of change in Indo-European languages and beyond, and the second part emphasizes explanations that reveal the role of language contact. The volume promotes a dialogue between approaches to language change having their starting point in structural and typological aspects of the history of languages on the one hand, and approaches concentrating on external factors on the other. Throughthis dialogue, the volume enriches knowledge on the contrast or complementarity of internally- and externally-motivated causes of language change.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本卷收錄了十項研究,提出了分析和解釋語言變化的現代方法論,特別針對各種形態音韻學和形態句法特徵。這些研究最初在2019年至2021年間於希臘基克拉澤群島的納克索斯島舉辦的「古代與中世紀歐洲的語言變異與變化」夏季學校的第四、第五和第六次研討會上發表。本書分為兩個部分,均專注於分析和解釋語言變化的現代工具和方法論。第一部分著重於印歐語言及其他語言的共同變化方向,第二部分則強調揭示語言接觸角色的解釋。本卷促進了兩種語言變化研究方法之間的對話:一方面是以語言歷史的結構和類型學方面為起點的方法,另一方面則是集中於外部因素的方法。通過這種對話,本卷豐富了對內部和外部驅動的語言變化原因的對比或互補性的認識。
