Himmelmann - Lexicalization and Grammaticization

This chapter discusses grammaticalization from an interdisciplinary perspective, bringing together insights from different fields like typology, historical linguistics, and cognitive linguistics. It examines grammaticalization at the interfaces between lexicon and grammar, arguing that grammaticalization is not strictly a phenomenon confined within the grammar. Grammaticalization is also shaped by external factors and influences from other cognitive domains.
