This book is an exploration of the syntax of external arguments in transitivity alternations from a cross-linguistic perspective. The empirical focus is the causative/anticausative alternation and the formation of (adjectival) Passives. The bulk of the discussion, couched within Distributed Morphology, is devoted to the properties of the (anti-)causative alternation, which the text takes to be a Voice alternation. It offers a detailed discussion of the morphological realization of anticausatives across languages, and argues that marked anticausatives involve expletive Voice and are not reflexive predicates. In the discussion of Passives, the book argues that the fact that Passives in German and English—unlike their counterparts in Greek, where Passives are syncretic with anticausatives—are morphologically unique reflects the fact that they are also structurally unique. Passives in English and German involve Passive Voice, while they involve Middle Voice in Greek. The text furthermore shows that the distinction between target and resultant state participles is an important one in order to understand the contribution of Voice in adjectival Passives. Importantly, the study provided tools to probe into the morpho-syntactic structure of verbs and participles, and to identify the properties of verbal alternations across languages.

Besides providing extensive support for David Perlmutter's hypothesis that unaccusativity is syntactically represented but semantically determined, this monograph contributes significantly to the development of a theory of lexical semantic representation and to the elucidation of the mapping from lexical semantics to syntax.

This systematic introduction to the concept of point of view in language explores the ways in which point of view intersects with and is shaped by ideology. It specifically focuses on the way in which speakers and writers linguistically encode their beliefs, interests and biases in a wide range of media. The book draws on an extensive array of linguistic theories and frameworks and each chapter includes a self-contained introduction to a particular topic in linguistics, allowing easy reference. The author uses examples from a variety of literary and non-literary text types such as, narrative fiction, advertisements and newspaper reports. This book offers an integrated programme of language-study and textual analysis that will be of interest to students of linguistics, stylistics, English Language, English as a foreign language, literature, and communication studies.

Le préverbe peut être défini comme " le préfixe d'un verbe ". Il convient de l'appréhender comme un "élément de relation" mettant en rapport une "entité-située" et une "entité-repère" dans le cadre d'un procès. Une étude confrontative des préverbes ad-, in-, ob, et per- dans la classe des verbes de déplacement agentif permet de caractériser le signifié spécifique de chacun. Nous constatons notamment que ob- connaît une autre valeur que celle de "face-à-face" : le "recouvrement", qui semble plus proche du signifié originel du préverbe. D'autre part, la différence entre "approche" et "entrée" ne suffit pas à rendre compte de ce qui oppose ad- et in- : le premier souligne souvent la distance initiale entre entité-située et entité-repère, tandis que la "limite double" peut également s'appliquer à un accès aisé ou se colorer d'hostilité. Grâce à l'étude sémantique des préverbes, nous pouvons dégager quelques caractéristiques qui relèvent plus largement du préverbe : constitution de séries paradigmatiques, principe d'affinité sémantique, continuum entre "portée interne" et "portée externe", importance de la représentation géométrique prêtée au référent du repère. Un dernier questionnement porte sur les liens entre le préverbe et la base verbale. Il semble qu'il faille renoncer à prêter au préverbe d'un verbe inchoatif une valeur aspectuelle : c'est plutôt la portée de l'affectation du sujet par la transformation prédiquée qui est caractérisée par le préverbe. Dans la parasynthèse, l'élément préfixal apparaît comme un préverbe fonctionnel. Syntaxiquement, la duplication ne semble pas être une variante libre, mais trouve toujours une justification, qu'elle relève de l'expressivité ou des contraintes liées à la sémantique des rôles. N'étant ni une préposition ni un "co-verbe", le préverbe mérite largement une étude spécifique. La préverbation, procédé de création lexicale, s'inscrit alors dans la question plus générale de la modélisation du réel au travers de l'énoncé.
