Questo lavoro analizza la questione del sincretismo di caso contestualizzato nell'ambito della linguistica indoeuropea. In un primo momento definisce il concetto di sincretismo in senso ampio e successivamente descrive alcune manifestazioni del fenomeno in antico inglese a partire da fonti storiche. Infine tratta i dati ottenuti con gli strumenti teorici della grammatica generativa concentrandosi sulla struttura di Distibuted Morphology, in particolare sul concetto di Impoverishment.
