Abstract:

This book is a collection of articles which deal with adpositions in a 
variety of languages and from a number of perspectives. Not only 
does the book cover what is traditionally treated in studies from a 
European and Semitic orientation  prepositions, but it presents 
studies on postpositions, too. The main languages dealt with in the 
collection are English, French and Hebrew, but there are articles 
devoted to other languages including Korean, Turkic languages, 
Armenian, Russian and Ukrainian. Adpositions are treated by some 
authors from a semantic perspective, by others as syntactic units, and 
a third group of authors distinguishes adpositions from the point of 
view of their pragmatic function. This work is of interest to students 
and researchers in theoretical and applied linguistics, as well as to 
those who have a special interest in any of the languages treated.
