"For the first time in the history of RRG, the framework is shown to be a powerful tool also in the realm of diachronic linguistics. Thus, it is to be expected that this book will trigger a new wave of diachronically minded in-depth studies for which RRG serves as the frame of reference. Accordingly, some of the papers demonstrate convincingly that RRG has substantial things to say when it comes to analyzing data from extinct languages or older stages of languages. Moreover, the many thought-provoking ideas expressed in this edited volume suggest that RRG and grammaticalization theory can work hand in hand successfully."Prof. Thomas Stolz, University of Bremen

The first part is comprised of seven articles dealing with possible applications of RRG to diachronic syntax and grammaticalization. Beside an overview article, the papers are mainly concerned with changes either in the interaction between topic-focus structure and the Layered Structure of the Clause or in the selection of Privileged Syntactic Arguments and case assignment. The second part consists of applications of RRG to Romance languages, and most of these applications are mainly concerned with the syntax-semantics interface. Different aspects of verbs (verbs as operators, verbs as sentence predicates, verb alternations) and the syntactic and semantic structures they involve are analyzed from an RRG perspective.
