Abstract:

The chapters of this volume scrutinize the interplay of different combinations of 
case, animacy and semantic roles, thus contributing to our understanding of 
these notions in a novel way. The focus of the chapters lies on showing how 
animacy affects argument marking. Unlike previous studies, these chapters 
primarily deal with lesser studied phenomena, such as animacy effects on 
spatial cases and the differences between cases and adpositions in the coding 
of spatial relations. In addition, theoretical and diachronic issues related to case 
and semantic roles are also discussed; for example, what is case, how do 
cases develop and what are the functional differences between cases and 
adpositions? The chapters deal with a variety of different languages including 
Uralic languages, Indo-European languages, Basque, Korean and Vaeakau-
Taumako. The book is appealing to anyone interested in case, animacy and/or 
semantic roles.
