Abstract:

Rhaeto-Cisalpine (or Padanian) is a western Romance language, spoken in 
the Po valley (extended to include the Ligurian coast), which has developed 
in an independent fashion from Italian and is strictly related to French, 
Occitan, and Catalan. This book is the natural continuation of "Rhaeto-
Cisalpine at a glance, Vol.1" and specifically deals with syntax issues.

It aims at both offering a solid reference about, and at proposing a complete 
synthesis of this diasystem, including the Rhaeto-Romance languages and 
the so called Gallo-Italic ones (sometimes mistaken for Italian dialects, a 
conclusion probably driven by unscientific criteria inherited by the Italian 
Risorgimento political bias). In the formation of a general Rhaeto-Cisalpine 
koiné the following criteria have systematically been adopted: getting close to 
medieval forms, purging the language from Italian influence, adopting 
Galloroman models as decisive contributions, accepting widespread forms 
and generalising local ones. In particular Ladin forms (both Rhaetian and 
Dolomitic) have been deemed central, thus synthetic Padanian has been 
modelled mainly upon these ones. The author is the founder of the "Institud 
de studis Rhaeto-Cisalpins".

Contents: General Information - Syntax of the adjective (the placement of the 
adjective, the concord of the adjective, the comparison of the adjective) - 
Syntax of the Personal Pronoun ( the subject pronoun, the oblique pronoun) - 
Syntax of the Verb (affirmative sentences, negative sentences, interrogative 
sentences, negative interrogative sentences, concord of the participle, the 
localised verb) - Syntax of the Adverb (adverbs modifying verbs, adverbs 
modifying adjectives, adverbs modifying adverbs, the comparison of the 
adverb) - Syntax of the article (position of the article, prepositions linked with 
determinate articles, the partitive article) - Bibliography.
