Abstract:

This book sheds new light on the puzzle of psychological predicates in a
cross-linguistic perspective by looking at them from a variety of angles at
the interfaces between event structure, lexical and viewpoint aspect, syntax
and information structure. The individual chapters focus on Polish and Spanish
psych verbs, which manifest new overt contrasts that often remain covert in
languages such as English, e.g., aspectual distinctions, the peculiarities of
dative constructions, or the role of information structure in determining the
word order. One of the main contributions of the book lies in positing a new
typology of basic event types enriched with the initial boundary events.
Moreover, due attention is devoted to dative experiencers as compared to
accusative experiencers. Although couched in the generative tradition, the
main insights presented in this collection are theory neutral and may be of
interest to linguists of all persuasions.
