Summary:This academic work by Lisa Dücker examines the historical development of sentence-internal capitalization in the German language during the Early Modern period. It explores the influence of factors such as animacy, semantic roles, and syntactic functions on capitalization from the 16th to 18th centuries. Building on extensive research, including the SiGS project funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, the study employs both quantitative and qualitative analyses to understand the evolution of capitalization practices. The book is intended for scholars and students in the fields of historical linguistics and German studies, offering insights into the linguistic variations and developments of the time.
