This is the first comprehensive attempt to provide a complete and up-to-date bibliography of dictionaries of spanish in its various European and non-European regional forms. More than 3500 dictionaries, vocabularies and glossaries are listed with full bibliographical details. Not only works of a general linguistic-literary nature but also those dealing with specialist fields and scientific and technical registers have been included. Designed for easy consultation following scientifically functional criteria, the work is divided into 5 main parts respectively dealing with Catalan, Galician, Spanish, Spanish in Latin America, and Spanish in the Philippines and surrounding areas. An appendix deals with Basque dictionaries. Each part is subdivided into sections on monolingual, bilingual and polyglot sources, and these sections are in turn divided according to terminological specialisation. The part dealing with Latin America moreover allows easy reference through the intricate web of Amerinidian languages. Each part concludes with analytical indices by author, language and subject (the latter of which provide a particularly rich and detailed breakdown by specialised field). These make for easy access to single entries in the vast quantity of material covered.

"The reflexive constructions that are the focus of this book are the constructions broadly described with the term "middle": i.e., those that can appear in all persons, and in which the reflexive marker (RM) cannot be understood as a full referential pronoun. One goal of this study is to provide a corpus-based typology of middle and related uses that allow us to compare the behaviour of the RM in these constructions with previous typological accounts, where competing models (based either on changes of diathesis or on the semantics of the verbal event) can be found. A second goal is to shed light on the evolution of the different functions of the RM, by exploring the factors that affect its productivity, with a specific focus on those verbs where reflexive marking is most variable, that is, anticausative verbs and verbs with no change of valency. Spanish and Galician, though closely-related and neighbouring languages, show rather different productivity in terms of these reflexive constructions and are thus good candidates for a contrastive and variationist analysis serving these two goals. The semantic class of the predicate, its aspectual properties and the animacy of the subject are some of the most relevant factors that are taken into account to understand the motivations behind the presence (or absence) of the RM. By relying on a corpus of interviews from rural communities across peninsular Spain (except Catalonia), space as a relevant extra-linguistic variable is taken into account, helping uncover previously unknown geographical patterns"--
