Abstract:

This book deals with atypical predicate-argument relations. Although the
relations between predicates, especially verbal, and their arguments have been
long studied, most studies are concerned with typical telic verbs in the past
tense, indicative mood, active voice, with all arguments expressed. Recently,
linguists have become interested in other types of predicate-argument
relations displaying atypical properties, be they morphological or syntactic,
in one language or cross-linguistically. The articles in this book investigate
some of these: argument marking with some special groups of verbs, arguments
not foreseen in the verb valency and contributed by the construction, verbs in
idiomatic constructions, valency-changing operations, arguments in thetic
sentences or in participle constructions etc. The authors work within
different theoretical frameworks and on various languages, from more current
languages like English, Spanish, French or German, to Hebrew or lamaholot, an
Austronesian language.
