A corpus-based study giving a comprehensive overview of English items which have been used as adverbial connectors ('conjuncts', 'linking adverbials'), from Old English to Present-Day English. It analyses different characteristics of the make-up, functions and use of connectives, and also considers morphological and syntactic factors.
