D.Kastovsky & A.Szwedek (eds.), Linguistics across Historical and
Geographical Boundaries. In Honour of Jacek Fisiak, vol. I:579-590. Mouton de
Gruyter 1986. There, I compared this Gmc. construction with Turk.,Arab. and
Hebrew double-marking of genitive possession, and contrasted this strategy with
that of bare juxtaposition (N+N) quoting examples from Kpelle, Mende and other
languages mentioned by Seiler 1981 ("akup"42, with the very useful
notion of syntactic 'continuum' for the expression of possession).</FONT></DIV>
