Abstract:

This volume is the first book length study into the essive, a relatively
unknown case marker like English ‘as (a child)’. It focuses on the
distribution of the essive in contemporary Uralic languages with special
attention to the opposition between permanent and impermanent state. The
volume presents large sets of new data and insights into the use of the essive
in nineteen Uralic languages on the basis of a typological linguistic
questionnaire. The typological variation is discussed within the linguistic
domains of non-verbal main predication, secondary predication,
complementation, and manner, temporal, and circumstantial adverbial phrases.
The descriptions and analyses are presented in such a way that they are
accessible to linguists in general, descriptive and theoretical linguists, and
specialists in Uralic and/or linguistic typology. The data and approach offer
many starting points for further investigations within but also outside the
Uralic language family.
