Abstract:

This book offers a comprehensive account of dative structures across languages
–with an important, though not exclusive, focus on the Romance family. As is
well-known, datives play a central role in a variety of structures, ranging
from ditransitive constructions to cliticization of indirect objects and
differentially marked direct objects, and including also psychological
predicates, possessor or causative constructions, among many others. As
interest in all these topics has increased significantly over the past three
decades, this volume provides an overdue update on the state of the art.
Accordingly, the chapters in this volume account for both widely discussed
patterns of dative constructions as well as those that are relatively unknown.
