2015 Aspect and prefixation in Old Church Slavonic Diachronica 32:2, pp. 186–230 | Article
In this article we focus on one grammaticalization path to perfective markers, that of the so-called ‘bounder perfectives’ (Bybee & Dahl 1989). Systems with these kinds of perfective markers – often called ‘Slavic-style aspect’ – are particularly elaborated in the Slavic languages. To examine why… read more
2015 Introduction Historical Linguistics 2013: Selected papers from the 21st International Conference on Historical Linguistics, Oslo, 5-9 August 2013, Haug, Dag T.T. (ed.), pp. vii–ix | Article
2015 Treebanks in historical linguistic research Perspectives on Historical Syntax, Viti, Carlotta (ed.), pp. 187–202 | Article
In this methodological article I discuss the advantages of using parsed corpora (treebanks) for historical linguistics research. I argue that even apparently simple, descriptive questions such as how often different word orders occur cannot be adequately answered without the use of treebanks, which… read more
2014 The theoretical foundations of givenness annotation Information Structure and Syntactic Change in Germanic and Romance Languages, Bech, Kristin and Kristine Gunn Eide (eds.), pp. 17–52 | Article
This article discusses the theory and practice of givenness annotation as applied in the PROIEL corpus, a corpus of old Indo-European New Testament translations. The annotation scheme that we use is based on Discourse Representation Theory (DRT). In the first part, we show how our tags relate to… read more
2009 Does Homeric Greek have prepositions? Or local adverbs? (And what's the difference anyway?) Grammatical Change in Indo-European Languages: Papers presented at the workshop on Indo-European Linguistics at the XVIIIth International Conference on Historical Linguistics, Montreal, 2007, Bubenik, Vit, John Hewson and Sarah Rose (eds.), pp. 103–120 | Article
2008 Aspectual oppositions from Proto-Indo-European to Latin Interdependence of Diachronic and Synchronic Analyses, Josephson, Folke and Ingmar Söhrman (eds.), pp. 61–72 | Article
In this paper, I attempt to trace the evolution of the aspect system from Indo-European times to the historically attested Latin system. The focus is not on the study of single changes, but on providing an overview which shows what diachronic typology can contribute to the history of the Latin… read more
2008 From resultatives to anteriors in Ancient Greek: On the role of paradigmaticity in semantic change Grammatical Change and Linguistic Theory: The Rosendal papers, Eythórsson, Thórhallur (ed.), pp. 285–305 | Article
2005 The linguistic thought of Friedrich August Wolf: A reconsideration of the relationship between classical philology and linguistics in the 19th century Historiographia Linguistica 32:1/2, pp. 35–60 | Article
This paper examines the linguistic thought of Friedrich August Wolf (1759–1824), the founder of modern classical philology, and tries to show that contrary to what is commonly assumed, grammar played an important role in his research program for a ‘science of antiquity’. Specifically, Wolf… read more
