Current Trends in Diachronic Semantics and Pragmatics
The focus of this volume is on semantic and pragmatic change, its causes and mechanisms. The papers gathered here offer both theoretical proposals of more general scope and in-depth studies of language-specific cases of meaning change in particular notional domains.

Latin Alive: The Survival of Latin in English and Romance Languages
In Latin Alive, Joseph Solodow tells the story of how Latin developed into modern French, Spanish, and Italian, and deeply affected English as well.

Though the Romance languages evolved directly from Latin, Solodow shows how every important feature of Latin's evolution is also reflected in English.
