Iconicity and Analogy in Language Change
The Development of Double Object Clitic Clusters from Medieval Florentine to Modern Italian
Samenvatting
Examines the alternation between accusative-dative and dative-accusative order in Old Florentine clitic clusters and its decline in favor of the latter. Based on an exhaustive analysis of data from medieval Florentine and Tuscan texts, this volume offers an analysis of the rise of the variable order, the transition from one order to the other.
