A Review of Synchrony and Diachrony: A Dynamic Interface

《共时与历时:一个动态接口》一书汇集了来自构式语法和语法化领域的领衔专家,利用最新的语言演变和语言变异理论,从描述和解释层面对大量共时-历时接口的案例进行分析研究,明确了共时-历时动态接口的表征方式,确立了构式语法理论和语法化理论相结合用于共时-历时动态接口研究的优越性,扩大了构式语法理论的应用和研究范围,对于发现新的语言现象,总结新的语言成果具有重要意义。

Synchrony and Diachrony: A Dynamic Interface, adopts the idea of leading experts in the field of construction grammar and grammaticalization, and puts together a good sample of phenomenon in which the synchrony-diachrony interface is crucial both at the descriptive and at the explanatory level. It identifies the factors that more frequently at play in the interface between synchrony and diachrony and the advantages of the combination of construction grammar and grammaticalization used in the dynamic interface study. Also it expands the scope of application and research in the theory of construction grammar and offers great significance to discover new language phenomenon and summarizes new language achievement.
