{"product_id":"the-syntax-of-old-romanian-gabriela-pan-dindelegan-9780198712350","title":"The Syntax of Old Romanian","description":"This book provides the first comprehensive overview of the syntax of old Romanian written in English and targeted at a non-Romanian readership. It draws on an extensive new corpus analysis of the period between the beginning of the sixteenth century, the date of the earliest attested Romanian texts, and the end of the eighteenth century, generally considered to mark the start of the modernization of Romanian. Gabriela Pană Dindelegan and her co-authors adopt both a synchronic and diachronic approach by providing a detailed corpus analysis in a given period, while also comparing old and modern Romanian. They examine the evolution of a variety of syntactic phenomena, including the elimination or diminishing of certain facts or generalization of others, the total or partial grammaticalization of phenomena, competition between structures, and cases of syntactic variation. The book takes a typological and comparative perspective, focusing on those phenomena that are considered specific to Romanian (either on the Romance or in the Balkan area), and adopts a modern framework while still remaining accessible to readers from any background.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gabriela Pană Dindelegan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198712359\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198712350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/25\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 728\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.40w x 1.70d","brand":"Gabriela Pan\u0026#259; Dindelegan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46866983846143,"sku":"9780198712350","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fcdf5828-bf41-471e-bd7c-5f57d37b804b.jpg?v=1747453610","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-syntax-of-old-romanian-gabriela-pan-dindelegan-9780198712350","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
