Conclusions

My intentions in writing this book were (i) to collect phenomena and put them in logical/chronological order and (ii) to engage with the analysis of some (syntactic) phenomena that yield variation across space and time such as enclisis/proclisis alternations, clitic climbing, and cluster formation. Concluding remarks are organized in two lists. The first mainly restates known empirical conclusions, refines previous analyses, or establishes very general theoretical anchors that may provide some guidelines for future research. The second focuses on more specific conclusions relating to generative theorizing.
