著作简介

Functional Heads Across Time

《功能中心语的历时研究》

Abstract：

This volume explores the role that functional elements play in syntactic change and investigates the semantic and functional features that are the driving force behind those changes. Structural developments are explained in terms of the reanalysis of parts of the functional sequences in the clausal, nominal, and adpositional domains, through changes in parameter settings and feature specifications. The chapters discuss 'microdiachronic' syntactic changes that often have implications for large-scale syntactic effects, such as word order variation, the emergence (and lexicalization) of syntactic projections, grammaticalization, and changes in information-structural properties. The volume contains both case studies of individual languages, such as German, Hungarian, and Romanian, and detailed investigations of cross-linguistic phenomena, based primarily on digital corpora of historical and dialectal data.

简介：

该书探讨了功能性成分在句法变化中所起的作用，同时还研究了促成这些变化背后的语义和功能特征。书中从参数设置和特征规范的变化两方面入手，对名词性和介词性成分以及从句的功能的序列重新分析，解释了句法结构的发展。书中讨论了“微历时”的句法变化，这些变化通常会对句法各方面产生广泛影响，例如词序的变化、句法投射（和词汇化）的出现、语法化和信息结构属性的变化等。该书不仅研究了个别语言，如德语、匈牙利语和罗马尼亚语，同时基于历史和方言数据的语料库，也对跨语言现象进行了研究。
