From the rich programme (over 130 papers were given during the conference), the present twelve papers were carefully selected to reflect the state of current research in the fields of English historical syntax and morphology. Some of the issues discussed are the emergence of viewpoint adverbials in English and German, changes in noun phrase structure from 1650 to the present, the development of the progressive in Scots, the passivization of composite predicates, the loss of V2 and its effects on the information structure of English, the acquisition of modal syntax and semantics by the English verb WANT, or the use of temporal adverbs as attributive adjectives in the Early Modern period. Many of the articles tackle questions of change through the use of methodological tools like computerized corpora. The theoretical frameworks adopted include, among others, grammaticalization theory, Dik's model of functional grammar, construction grammar and Government & Binding Theory.Amsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.Series IV,Current issues in linguistic theory ;v. 223.English languageHistoryCongressesEnglish languageGrammar, HistoricalCongressesEnglish languageMorphologyCongressesEnglish languageSyntaxCongressesEnglish languageHistoryEnglish languageGrammar, HistoricalEnglish languageMorphologyEnglish languageSyntax420/.9Fanego Teresa175884Lopez-Couso Maria Jose388971Perez-Guerra Javier388972International Conference on English Historical LinguisticsMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910960258103321English historical syntax and morphology4345125UNINA
