Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Theresa Biberauer is a Senior Research Associate at the University of Cambridge, where she is also a Fellow of Churchill College, and Associate Professor Extraordinary at her South African alma mater, Stellenbosch University. Her research interests are principally in theoretical and comparative (synchronic and diachronic) morphosyntax, with Germanic generally and Afrikaans in particular being areas of specific interest. Her past work has focused on word-order variation, (null) subject phenomena, negation, information structure, and the larger question of the nature of parametric variation. She is the co-editor, with Michelle Sheehan, of Theoretical Approaches to Disharmonic Word Order (OUP 2013).

George Walkden is a Lecturer in the Department of Linguistics and English Language at the University of Manchester. His research is in historical syntax, and his doctoral dissertation focused on aspects of syntactic reconstruction as applied to the early Germanic languages. He is the author of Syntactic Reconstruction and Proto-Germanic (OUP 2014), and is also Associate Editor of Language, with responsibility for its Historical Syntax section.
