In this book
Elly
van
Gelderen
provides examples of linguistic
cycles from a number of languages and language families, along
with an account of the linguistic cycle in
ternis
of minimalist
economy principles. A cycle involves grammaticalization from lexi¬
cal to functional category followed by renewal. Some well-known
cycles involve negatives, where full negative phrases are reanalyzed
as words and affixes and are then renewed by full phrases again
Verbal agreement is another example: full pronouns are reanalyzed
as agreement markers and are renewed again Each chapter provides
data on a separate cycle from a myriad of languages. Van
Gelderen
argues that the cross-linguistic similarities can be seen as Economy
Principles present in the initial cognitive system or Universal Gram¬
mar. She further claims that some of the cycles can be used to clas¬
sify a language as analytic or synthetic, and she provides insight into
the shape of the earliest human language and-how it evolved.
