Abstract:

What happens when a canonically transitive form meets a canonically transitive 
meaning, and what happens when this doesn't happen? How do dyadic forms 
relate to monadic ones, and what are the entailments of the operations that the 
grammar uses to relate one to the other? Collecting original expert work from 
acquisition, processing, typological and theoretical syntax-semantics research, 
this volume provides a state of the art as well as cutting edge discussion of 
central issues in the realm of Transitivity. These include the definition and role 
of "Natural Transitivity", the interpretation and repercussions of valency 
changing operations and differential case marking, and the interactions between 
(in)transitive Gestalts in different categories and at different levels of 
representation.
