note = "This contribution was facilitated through an invitation as visiting professor at the Universidade de S{\~a}o Paulo, a leading research university in South America. The generous funding of my two month stay together with presentations to colleagues and the teaching of a small group of research students helped me to advance and improve my argument for this contribution.This Cambridge History is the most comprehensive survey of the history of the Romance languages ever published in English. It engages with new and original topics that reflect wider-ranging comparative concerns, such as the relation between diachrony and synchrony, morphosyntactic typology, pragmatic change, the structure of written Romance, and lexical stability.",
