[Lingtyp] Middle Voice

[Juergen Bohnemeyer]

Dear Sergey – Possibly of minor interest:

Bohnemeyer, J. (2007). Morpholexical Transparency and the argument structure of verbs of cutting and breaking. Cognitive Linguistics 18(2): 153-177.

Looks at both lexical and discourse-pragmatic factors driving the use of the two construction types that different terminological traditions call ‘middles.’

Cheers – Juergen

Dear colleagues,

Are you aware of discussions of the so-called Middle Voice postdating Susan Kemmer's book "The Middle Voice" (1993)?

Thank you very much!

Sergey
