Abstract:

This volume contains a selection of papers dealing with constructions that
have a passive-like interpretation but do not seem to share all the properties
with canonical passives. The fifteen chapters of this volume raise important
questions concerning the proper characterization of the universal properties
of passivization and reflect the current discussion in this area, covering
syntactic, semantic, psycho-linguistic and typological aspects of the
phenomenon, from different theoretical perspectives and in different language
families and backed up in most cases by extensive corpora and experimental
studies.
