Jedrzejowski Lukasz, Demske Ulrike (eds.). Infinitives at the Syntax-Semantics Interface: A Diachronic Perspective

De Gruyter Mouton, 2017. — 372 p. — (Trends in Linguistics. Studies and Monographs [TiLSM] 306).The major aim of this volume is to investigate infinitival structures from a diachronic point of view and, simultaneously, to embed the diachronic findings into the ongoing theoretical discussion on non-finite clauses in general. All contributions subscribe to a dynamic approach to infinitival clauses by investigating their origin, development and loss in miscellaneous patterns and across different languages.
