Abstract

This paper examines the history of the Slavic locative viewed from the perspective of language contact(s) in diachronic language change. From a comparative study of Slavic languages, it transpires that whereas in most of these languages the locative was replaced by a prepositive well before the emergence of a written tradition, in the North East Slavia, notably in the Old Novgorodian dialect, it was preserved in certain lexical groups until the 13(th) century. By studying the use of the locative in the corpus of Novgorodian birchbark texts (11(th)-15(th) centuries), the paper argues that language contact(s) have both a catalyzing and a conserving function in language change.
