Apart from

    Levin, Beth 1993, /English verb classes and alternations. /Chicago:
    Chicago University Press.

I am afraid that

    Lehmann, Christian 2015, “Situation types, valency frames and
    operations”. Malchukov, Andrej & Comrie, Bernard (eds.), /Valency
    classes in the world’s languages. Volume 1: Introducing the
    framework, and case studies from Africa and Eurasia. Volume 2: Case
    studies from Austronesia, the Pacific, the Americas, and theoretical
    outlook./ Berlin & Boston, Mass.: de Gruyter Mouton (Comparative
    Handbooks of Linguistics, 1); 1547-1596.
    https://www.researchgate.net/publication/325494097_Situation_types_valency_frames_and_operations

is relatively basic.
