Description: Infinitives at the Syntax-semantics Interface : A Diachronic Perspective, Hardcover by Jedrzejowski, Lukasz (EDT); Demske, Ulrike (EDT), ISBN 3110518473, ISBN-13 9783110518474, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Exploring non-finite structures and their diachronic change across languages, linguists relate the synchrony and diachrony of infinitival systems in different languages to each other based on empirical data, and show the extent to which they can account for infinitival systems of modern languages by examining changes in earlier language periods. Their topics include restructuring at the syntax-semantics interface, the Romanian infinitive selected by perception and cognitive verbs, early modern Romanian infinitives: origin and replacement, semantic factors for the status of control infinitives in the history of German, and the emergence of expressions for purpose relations in older Indo-European languages.
