Literature on acquisition of spatial particles in English

[info childes]

Dear Karla,
I've had the same problem, and I'm afraid I couldn't find much in the
field of acquisition...I found Clark&Carpenter's article on the notion
of source very inspiring, though probably not what you're looking for -
more of a semantic analysis (see Language 65, vol. 1).
But otherwise you'll probably find interesting stuff in:
BOLINGER, Dwight, 1971. The Phrasal Verb in English. Cambridge (Ma) :
Harvard University Press.
DEHÉ, Nicole, Ray Jackendoff, Andrew McIntyre et al., 2002. Verb-
Particle Explorations. Berlin & New York: Mouton de Gruyter.
BRINTON, Laurel J., 1985. "Iconicity and semantic change : Old English
verbal prefixes". Amsterdamer Beiträge zur älteren Germanistik 23 :
55-70.
FISCHER, Olga et al., 2000. "Verb-particles in Old and Middle
English". The Syntax of Early English. Cambridge : Cambridge
University Press : 80-210.
MITCHELL, Bruce, 1978. "Prepositions, adverbs, prepositional adverbs,
postpositions, separable prefixes, or inseparable prefixes, in Old
English?". Neuphilologische Mitteilungen 79 : 240-57.


I've also got a couple of articles that I could send you as pdfs, but
I would need an email address.
And there's this one (a PhD) I couldn't get so if you manage to find
it, could you please let me know...
LINDNER S.J., 1983. A Lexico-Semantic Analysis of English Verb-
Particle Constructions with out and up. Indiana University Linguistics
Club.
