Hi Sergey,
<div class="">Related to the development of middle marking and deponents, as well as the extension (what I assume you mean by “refine” and “abstractivize”) of morphological marking, I have the following paper:</div>

<div>And for more on the development of reflexive to middle to stativization, the following paper gives more details on one of the issues discussed in the 1995 paper:</div>

permit me a philosophical question. We all know that today’s affixes are yesterday’s lexical words. And what about today’s grammatical patterns? I think first of all about “participles”, both active and passive. An example is Latin, with its passive participle
used to form analytical tense forms. Intuitively, I would guess no passive participle pattern is ever born as “a passive participle.”
</span><span class="" style="font-size:12pt; line-height:115%; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif; color:rgb(75,79,86); background:rgb(254,254,254)">It is rather born as a pattern (or derivation rule) for adjectives with more concrete pattern sense, not with
the highly abstract and refined meaning of passive nominalization. The same applies to active participles.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="" style="font-size:12.0pt; line-height:115%; font-family:'Times New Roman','serif'; color:#4b4f56; background:#FEFEFE">Synthetic finite forms of passive raise the same question. Say, inner passive patterns of Arabic and -or,
-ris, -tur, -mur, -minī -ntur of Latin. In both Arabic and Latin there are “deponent verbs”. Their existence is an additional hint to the effect that the passive meaning of these markers is not a pristine one, that they used to be the grammatical markers
of something else than Passive. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="" style="font-size:12.0pt; line-height:115%; font-family:'Times New Roman','serif'; color:#4b4f56; background:#FEFEFE">Who has worked on how grammatical markers and patterns “refine” and “abstractivize” their meanings? And,
in particular, on derivational sources of participles?</span><br class="">
