AGENTS IN EARLY WELSH AND EARLY IRISH

Nicole Müller, University of Wales, Cardiff

This book is the first in-depth investigation of the expression of
agency in verbal noun and impersonal/passive constructions in medieval
Welsh and Irish, drawing on a database of texts from different genres:
narrative, legal, and annalistic. The analysis is primarily
data-oriented, rather than theory-oriented, although it draws on
methods and concepts from functional grammar approaches and cognitive
linguistics.
