Abstract:

A Functional Account of Marathi's Voice Phenomena offers a comprehensive
account of the formal and semantic aspects of the two most prominent voice
phenomena in Marathi: the passive and the causative. Previous studies offer
many partial insights into various aspects of Marathi’s passives and
causatives. However, a comprehensive description of the formal, semantic, and
pragmatic aspects of Marathi’s passives and causatives as not been available
so far. Attempting to fill this gap, the present monograph offers a
description in the functional-typological framework. At the same time it
introduces the reader to the rich tradition of grammatical studies in Marathi,
which up to now have remained inaccessible to those who are unfamiliar with
the language.
