Sommario/riassunto

In der aktuellen Kontaktlinguistik wurden überwiegend Sprachen in Kontakt betrachtet, die genetisch nicht verwandt und strukturell distant sind. Der vorliegende Sammelband setzt sich zum Ziel, mit einem Schwerpunkt im Bereich der romanischen und slavischen Sprachen die Bedeutung von bereits zu Beginn des Kontakts vorhandenen Effekten der strukturellen Kongruenz zwischen den beteiligten Sprachen zu beleuchten. Dabei spielen ererbte wie auch typologische Ähnlichkeiten eine Rolle.

Modern contact linguistics has primarily focused on contact between languages that are genetically unrelated and structurally distant. This compendium of articles looks instead at the effects of pre-existing structural congruency between the affected languages at the time of their initial contact, using the Romance and Slavic languages as



examples. In contact of this kind, both genetic and typological similarities play a part.
