This volume offers theoretically informed surveys of topics that
have figured prominently in morphosyntactic and syntactic research
into Romance languages and dialects. We define syntax as being the
linguistic component that assembles linguistic units, such as roots
or functional morphemes, into grammatical sentences, and
morphosyntax as being an umbrella term for all morphological
relations between these linguistic units, which either trigger
morphological marking (e.g. explicit case morphemes) or are related
to ordering issues (e.g. subjects precede finite verbs whenever
there is number agreement between them). All 24 chapters adopt a
comparative perspective on these two fields of research,
highlighting cross-linguistic grammatical similarities and
differences within the Romance language family. In addition, many
chapters address issues related to variation observable within
individual Romance languages, and grammatical change from Latin to
Romance.

This book gathers papers presented and discussions held at the
Conference on Wind Energy and Wildlife Impacts in Melbourne,
Australia on 9th October 2012. The purpose of the conference was to
bring together researchers, industry, consultants, regulators and
Non-Government Organizations to share the results of studies into
wind farm and wildlife investigations in Australia and New Zealand.
The aim was to further networking and communication between these
groups. The conference discussed key issues and areas for future
investigation, with the intention of developing consistencies in
research and management. Like the Conference, the book showcases
current research and management in the field of wind farms and
wildlife in Australia and New Zealand; establishes consistencies in
research and management; and highlights areas in need of further
examination. The papers in these Proceedings are presented in two
session topics. The first covers "Investigations and assessment of
new wind farms" and the second, "Monitoring, mitigation and
offsets." The Proceedings then summarize the panel discussions held
at the end of the conference. The themes include improving pre- and
post-construction survey design; identifying key knowledge gaps and
research priorities; uncertainties and errors in data sets and
analysis; creating opportunities to share knowledge; and assessing
cumulative impacts across multiple sites.

The subject of this extensive corpus-based study is the
distribution and the functional role played by a total of 22
indefinite nouns in 9 key texts for Italian linguistic and literary
history dating from the late 13th to the early 16th century
(including ANovellinoA, ADecameronA, and Bembo's AProseA). The
central issue is the semantic and functional differentiation of
these indefinite forms as encountered in the texts. This is
pinpointed by way of comparison with their Latin etyma and modern
Italian equivalents. A further essential aspect is the problem of
the grammaticalization of indefinite noun determinants in Italian
and the Romance languages in general.
