Summary:

Among the countless themes in language studies on which Pierre Swiggers has worked and published, linguistic historiography undoubtedly stands out. In this subdiscipline of language studies, he has acted as a true architect and maître d'œuvre. For this reason, the editors have chosen "the architecture of grammar" as the guiding theme of this volume in his honor. Opening with a preface and general introduction, the book brings together contributions pertaining to this general theme, ranging from antiquity to the present day, and closes with the bibliography of the honoratus.
