Abstract:
This is the first of three volumes dealing with clausal architecture,
grammatical relations, case-marking and the syntax–semantics interface in
Baltic. It focuses on the grammatical relations of subject and object and the
viability of these notions in languages like Lithuanian and Latvian, which
have a rich case morphology and show many deviations from the canonical
nominative-accusative pattern of case-marking. The issues examined include
differential object marking, subjecthood in specificational copular
constructions, ‘swarm’-type alternations and what they tell us about
grammatical relations, special types of subject and object marking in
non-finite clauses, and non-canonical grammatical relations induced by modal
predicates. One study provides a comparative outlook towards Icelandic,
another language noted for its complex marking of grammatical relations. The
articles in the volume represent various theoretical frameworks.
