Abstract:

This monograph studies stative predicates from a neo-constructionist
perspective and integrates them in a comprehensive theory of event and
argument structure. It focuses on two sets of stative verbs: govern-type verbs
and object experiencer psychological verbs. For govern-verbs, it shows how
notions such as causativity and resultativity can also be ingredients of
stative predicates and be derived syntactically. The consequences of this
proposal are further pursued in a crosslinguistic investigation of adjectival
passives, which are stative predicates of sorts. For object-experiencer
psychological verbs, it is shown that their Experiencer theta-role can and
should be derived as an aspectual entailment mediated by prepositional
structure. In defending this view, this monograph reveals a syntactic
parallelism between location verbs and object-experiencer psychological verbs
in many languages that has hitherto gone unnoticed. This book will primarily
appeal to researchers interested in lexical aspect and its connection to
morphosyntax.
