Abstract

35 years have passed since the publication of Fillmore et al. (1988), which can be seen as one of the foundational works of Construction Grammar (CxG). The present special issue celebrates this anniversary with a collection of papers that revisit influential papers or ideas from the history of constructionist approaches. In this introduction, we motivate our choice of Fillmore et al. (1988) as a seminal paper for CxG, and give a brief overview of the ideas behind this collection of papers as well as of the papers themselves.
