Abstract:
This volume provides a state-of-the-art account of research into datives
and other morphological cases. The contributors, among them leading
scholars in the field, present fresh insights into traditional issues such
as the dichotomy between lexical and structural case, and open up
fascinating new areas of research. A recurrent feature of the majority of
contributions is their combined syntax-semantics perspective. Germanic
varieties, Serbian, Albanian and other Balkan languages alongside Chinese,
Japanese, Tagalog are discussed from various theoretical angles such as
mainstream generativism, lexical-functional grammar, and functional
typology. Despite the broad range of facts spanning the distance between
acquisition data and dialectology, the papers are connected by a renewed
interest in form-function correspondencies. This volume will be welcomed by
theoretical linguists and typologists with an interest in argument and
event structure, linguists studying the case systems of individual
languages and researchers in search for up-to-date discussion of Germanic
datives.
