Ricardo Bermúdez-Otero is Senior Lecturer in Linguistics and English Language at


the University of Manchester. His research focuses on the morphosyntax–phonology
and phonology–phonetics interfaces, with particular attention to diachronic issues. He
works predominantly on Germanic (especially Old, Middle, and Present-Day English)
and Romance. His publications on historical phonology include chapters in Optimality
Theory and Language Change (2003, Kluwer), The Cambridge Handbook of Phonology
(2007, CUP), and The Oxford Handbook of the History of English (2012, OUP).
Juliette Blevins is currently Professor of Linguistics at the CUNY Graduate Center,
with research interests in Austronesian, Australian Aboriginal, Native American,
and Andamanese languages. Her book Evolutionary Phonology (2004, CUP) presents
a unique theory synthesizing results in historical linguistics, phonetics, typology and
phonological theory. She currently has over 100 publications, most recently in such
journals as Phonology, Oceanic Linguistics, and Language and Cognition.
David Bowie is an Associate Professor at the University of Alaska Anchorage, where
he is one of the English Department’s linguists. For the past few years he has been con-
ducting research on the sociolinguistic effects of changes in age and religious affiliation,

Grammar: Tense, Aspect and Modality in the Languages of the World (1994, University
of Chicago Press, with Revere Perkins and William Pagliuca), provides diachronic
explanations for typological phenomena. Her books presenting a usage-based perspec-
tive on synchrony and diachrony include Phonology and Language Use (2001, CUP),
Frequency of Use and the Organization of Language (2007, OUP), and Language, Usage
and Cognition (2010, CUP).
