The variables which condition the differential argument marking (or DAM) pertain to various properties of the NP (such as animacy or definiteness) or to event semantics or various properties of the clause. While the main line of current research on DAM is mainly synchronic the volume tackles the diachronic perspective. The tenet is that the emergence and the development of differential marking systems provide a different kind of evidence for the understanding of the phenomenon. The present volume consists of 18 chapters and primarily brings together diachronic case studies on particular languages or language groups including e.g. Finno-Ugric, Sino-Tibetan and Japonic languages. The volume also includes a position paper, which provides an overview of the typology of different subtypes of DAM systems, a chapter on computer simulation of the emergence of DAM and a chapter devoted to the cross-linguistic effects of referential hierarchies on DAM. 410 0$aStudies in diversity linguistics ;$v. 606 $aHistorical linguistics 606 $aLingüística histórica$2CSICAUL 610 $aLinguistics 615 0$aHistorical linguistics. 615 7$aLingüística histórica 676 $a417 700 $aSer?ant$b Ilja A$4edt$01356921 702 $aSer?ant$b Ilja A. 702 $aWitzlack-Makarevich$b Alena 801 0$bES-MaCSI 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910287935203321 996 $aDiachrony of differential argument marking$93362019 997 $aUNINA
