My research focuses on classical problems of historical
linguistics which may receive new inputs by current advances
in general linguistic theory and quantitative linguistics. My
main research areas are:
- Syntax
- Syntax-semantics interface
- Formal theories of language change: syntactic change and
semantic change
- Syntax and semantics of the nominal phrase / DP: syntax of
adnominal arguments, syntax and semantics of reference and denotation
- Syntax and semantics of negation
- Voice, Argument structure, Case
- History of Latin, Greek, Romance languages
- Language and migration, multilingualism
