Il sistema pronominale subisce una trasformazione significativa dal latino alle lingue romanze. I sistemi dei pronomi personali in area romanza appaiono notevolmente diversificati, suggerendo che durante la formazione di nuovi paradigmi pronominali personali nei vari dialetti romanzi siano state possibili molteplici traiettorie evolutive. Per quanto riguarda i pronomi personali tonici, sebbene si registri una tendenza generale alla riduzione dei casi, la neutralizzazione dell’opposizione di caso non si è verificata uniformemente per tutte le persone nell’intera area romanza. Questo studio propone una nuova classificazione tipologica per i pronomi personali tonici nell’area romanza. L’articolo descrive i modelli fondamentali che regolano l’evoluzione dei sistemi pronominali tonici nelle lingue romanze, dimostrando così che tali sviluppi seguono un percorso prevedibile.
Abstract
The pronominal system of Latin changes radically in the Romance languages due to the collapse of the case system and prosodic changes. At first sight, the personal pronominal systems in the Romance area are very different, and it seems that many possibilities were open when the new personal pronominal paradigms emerged in different Romance varieties. The tendency to reduce the number of cases (case syncretism) is common for the entire Romance area, but the number of opposite cases is not the same. This article proposes a new typology to classify tonic personal pronouns in the Romance area. It shows that the tendency towards simplification follows certain rules, and the development is not as casual as it might seem. The reduction of cases follows a strict order that seems to be common for all Romance languages. The article will explain the patterns behind the evolution of the pronominal systems in Romance, and these patterns will show that the development is foreseeable.
