The Afro-Hispanic Languages of the Americas (AHLAs) present a
number of grammatical similarities that have traditionally been
ascribed to a previous creole stage. Approaching creole studies
from contrasting standpoints, this groundbreaking book provides a
new account of these phenomena. How did these features come about?
What linguistic mechanisms can account for their parallel existence
in several contact varieties? How can we formalize such mechanisms
within a comprehensive theoretical framework? How can these new
datasets help us test and refine current formal theories, which
have primarily been based on standardized language data? In
addressing these important questions, this book not only casts new
light on the nature of the AHLAs, it also provides new theoretical
and methodological perspectives for a more integrated approach to
the study of contact-driven restructuring across language
interfaces and linguistic domains.
