Abstract:

This book offers the first comprehensive study of Middle English prepositions
and adverbs combining the prefix «be-» with a preposition, an adverb or a
numeral recorded in prose texts. Six best established lexemes, i.e., «before,
beyond, behind, beneath, between» and «betwixt» are analysed. The investigated
aspects include the semantics of the prepositions and adverbs, their dialectal
and textual distribution as well as their frequency of use viewed both from a
synchronic and diachronic perspective. The study draws on the linguistic data
retrieved from a collection of specially selected complete prose texts from
the «Innsbruck Corpus of Middle English Prose». The description of the
obtained results is enhanced with numerous tables and figures.
