A survey such as Claude Hagège <i>Adpositions</i> (OUP, 2010) will have a lot of relevant information about the semantics. On a specific language, see Bob Dixon
<i>English Prepositions. Their Meanings and Uses </i>(OUP, 2021). For a particular type of adpositional structure, there is plenty of valuable data and analyses in Benjamin Fagard et al (eds)
<i>Complex Adpositions in European Languages </i>(De Gruyter 2020).</div>
