The topics covered include some that have figured extensively in recent literature on Scandinavian syntax and its implications for syntactic theory: case, agreement, embedded clause word order, stylistic fronting, and the nature of "expletive" constructions. The volume is conceived around the topic of variation, both within and between the two languages studied-as well as more generally-and stands out for the wealth of new empirical detail from both Faroese and Icelandic, relating to each of the topics and theoretical issues discussed. Each chapter is written in a way to make it accessible to a wide audience within linguistics; the book will be essential reading for students and researchers with an interest in the syntax of the Germanic languages. 606 $aScandinavian languages$xSyntax 606 $aScandinavian languages$xVariation 606 $aScandinavian languages$xCase 606 $aLinguistic change$zScandinavia 606 $aConstruction (Linguistics) 607 $aScandinavia$xLanguages 615 0$aScandinavian languages$xSyntax. 615 0$aScandinavian languages$xVariation. 615 0$aScandinavian languages$xCase. 615 0$aLinguistic change 615 0$aConstruction (Linguistics) 676 $a439/.5 702 $aHo?skuldur Þra?insson$f1946- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817756703321 996 $aSyntactic variation in Insular Scandinavian$93962525 997 $aUNINA
