The honoree of this Festschrift has for many years now marked
modern trends in diachronic and synchronic linguistics by his own
publications and by stimulating those of numerous others. This
collection of articles presents data-oriented studies that
integrate modern and traditional approaches in the field, thus
reflecting the honoree's contribution to contemporary linguistics.
The articles relate to comparative data from (early) Indo-European
languages and a variety of other languages and discuss the
theoretical implications of phenomena such as linguistic
universals, reconstruction, and language classification.
TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS is a series of books that open new
perspectives in our understanding of language. The series publishes
state-of-the-art work on core areas of linguistics across
theoretical frameworks, as well as studies that provide new
insights by approaching language from an interdisciplinary
perspective. TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS considers itself a forum for
cutting-edge research based on solid empirical data on language in
its various manifestations, including sign languages. It regards
linguistic variation in its synchronic and diachronic dimensions as
well as in its social contexts as important sources of insight for
a better understanding of the design of linguistic systems and the
ecology and evolution of language. TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS publishes
monographs and outstanding dissertations as well as edited volumes,
which provide the opportunity to address controversial topics from
different empirical and theoretical viewpoints. High quality
standards are ensured through anonymous reviewing.
