This volume explores the idea that language change may proceed in a cyclical fashion. The chapters assume that cyclic change is pragmatically driven, and explore forms of this change in morphosyntax, the lexicon, and semantics and pragmatics - as well as the interaction between these levels - in a variety of languages.
