<br/><br/> Principles of Syntactic Reconstruction, explores theoretical and methodological approaches to reconstructing<br/>earlier syntactic stages of languages. Drawing on comparative evidence, historical data, and typological patterns,the volume addresses how syntactic change can be systematically explained and how lost structures may be inferred. Contributions examine case studies from diverse language families, highlighting intersections between diachronic syntax, grammaticalization, and language contact. The book provides researchers and students with essential tools and frameworksfor understanding historical developments in syntax.  http://172.20.27.22:4000/handle/123456789/55
