A detailed analysis is then given of the various meanings of six specific free form postpositions and of their extended variants. For each of these highly polysemous postpositions, a schematic network structure is provided which accommodates the variety of meanings they are able to convey. Each schematic network is further shown to be related to one, two or three prototypes, to which the non-prototypical variants are related through elaboration or extension. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.03gre 06 10.1075/cagral.6.03gre 67 94 28 Article 5 01 04 Connate roles in Nyulnyul Connate roles in Nyulnyul 01 04 non-nuclear grammatical relations within the core non-nuclear grammatical relations within the core 1 A01 01 JB code 851225193 William B. McGregor McGregor, William B. William B. McGregor 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/851225193 01 eng 03 00 This paper is concerned with the distinction between nuclear and non-nuclear grammatical relations in Nyulnyul, an effectively extinct language of Dampier Land, Western Australia. Drawing on research within Semiotic Grammar, it is proposed that a fundamental distinction needs to be drawn between experiential relations (Actor, Undergoer, Agent, and the like) and logical relations (circumstantial or adverbial elements). Although it is tempting to correlate nuclear and non-nuclear relations with the experiential-logical contrast, the relations are so unalike that it is misleading to place them on a single hierarchy. It is suggested instead that experiential grammatical relations can be meaningfully divided into nuclear and core types, and that this distinction provides a layered model for the clause as an experiential unit. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.04dra 06 10.1075/cagral.6.04dra 95 126 32 Article 6 01 04 German two-way prepositions and related phenomena German two-way prepositions and related phenomena 1 A01 01 JB code 361225194 Luk Draye Draye, Luk Luk Draye 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/361225194 01 eng 03 00 This paper examines German two-way prepositions governing both the accusative and the dative. It shows that sticking to concepts such as static location (DAT) vs change of location, movement or direction (ACC), as is still done in traditional grammars, falls short of being descriptively and explanatorily adequate. Although Paul’s (1920) dichotomy between emerging relationship (ACC) and existing relationship (DAT) constituted a major, though hardly noted improvement, it remains counterintuitive in that it characterizes ablative and perlative datives as expressing existing relationships. Shifting to a dichotomy between emerging relationship (ACC) and non-emerging relationship (DAT) permits to characterize the positively defined accusative as the marked option and the negatively defined dative as the default option, generalizing over all dative subclasses. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.05sme 06 10.1075/cagral.6.05sme 127 172 46 Article 7 01 04 Adpositional constructions of location and motion in Dutch Adpositional constructions of location and motion in Dutch 1 A01 01 JB code 846225195 Hans Smessaert Smessaert, Hans Hans Smessaert 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/846225195 2 A01 01 JB code 903225196 William Van Belle Van Belle, William William Van Belle 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/903225196 3 A01 01 JB code 66225197 Ingrid Van Canegem-Ardijns Van Canegem-Ardijns, Ingrid Ingrid Van Canegem-Ardijns 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/66225197 01 eng 03 00 In traditional grammar, constructions of location and motion are standardly considered as adverbial adjuncts, i.e. as constituents that do not belong to the nuclear or core elements of the clause. However, in Dutch, as in many other languages, there are different classes of verbal predicates which require the presence of a location or motion constituent in order to yield a grammatical clause. Since these obligatory constituents are manifestly part of the verbal valency frame, the authors call them location and motion objects. The combination of the criterion of (non-)optionality and that of substitutability with pronominal or adverbial elements leads to the tripartition between adjunct, object and predicate complement. This distinction is further shown to pattern with different word order restrictions. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.06mag 06 10.1075/cagral.6.06mag 173 216 44 Article 8 01 04 The distribution of adverbials in declarative sentences in French The distribution of adverbials in declarative sentences in French 1 A01 01 JB code 607225198 Ilse Magnus Magnus, Ilse Ilse Magnus 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/607225198 01 eng 03 00 This paper examines the distribution of different classes of adverbials within French declarative sentences, and links it to information structure. First, each position hosting an adverbial within a French declarative sentence is shown to be specialized for (a) specific type(s) of adverbial(s). Next, the relation with information structure is spelled out. The theoretical assumption is that adverbials can be classified as either focusable or not, and that this distinction also applies to the entire sentence: a French declarative sentence contains a non-focusable and a focusable section separated by the position for the negation particle. French appears to be characterized by a strong correlation between the (un)focusability of adverbials and the positions these adverbials can occupy. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.07del 06 10.1075/cagral.6.07del 217 318 102 Article 9 01 04 Passive Voice and Causal Roles in Spanish Passive Voice and Causal Roles in Spanish 1 A01 01 JB code 197225199 Nicole Delbecque Delbecque, Nicole Nicole Delbecque 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/197225199 01 eng 03 00 This paper focuses on oblique variation in the passive. It relies on insights on causal modeling to study the construction types available to express a passive or medio-passive meaning in Spanish. Oblique variation is argued to fulfill an important function in the profiling of the relation between agent and patient, causer and causee, affectant and affectee. The choice of the preposition is shown to function as a device for agenthood management. Based on distributional evidence, the systematic survey of representative corpus examples with the four most frequent prepositions (por ‘by, through’, en ‘in’, de ‘of, from’ and con ‘with’) sheds light on issues related to the prototypicity and nuclearity of participant relations in passive and medio-passive construals. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.08sub 06 10.1075/cagral.6.08sub 319 326 8 Article 10 01 04 Subject Index Subject Index 01 eng 01 01 JB code cagral.6.09aut 06 10.1075/cagral.6.09aut 327 328 2 Article 11 01 04 Name Index Name Index 01 eng 01 JB code JBENJAMINS John Benjamins Publishing Company 01 01 JB code JB John Benjamins Publishing Company 01 https://benjamins.com 02 https://benjamins.com/catalog/cagral.6 Amsterdam NL 00 John Benjamins Publishing Company Marketing Department / Karin Plijnaar, Pieter Lamers onix@benjamins.nl 04 01 00 20141217 C 2014 John Benjamins Publishing Company D 2014 John Benjamins Publishing Company 02 WORLD WORLD US CA MX 09 01 JB 1 John Benjamins Publishing Company +31 20 6304747 +31 20 6739773 bookorder@benjamins.nl 01 https://benjamins.com 21 51 14 01 00 Unqualified price 02 JB 1 02 105.00 EUR 02 00 Unqualified price 02 88.00 01 Z 0 GBP GB US CA MX 01 01 JB 2 John Benjamins Publishing Company +1 800 562-5666 +1 703 661-1501 benjamins@presswarehouse.com 01 https://benjamins.com 21 51 14 01 00 Unqualified price 02 JB 1 02 158.00 USD

A detailed analysis is then given of the various meanings of six specific free form postpositions and of their extended variants. For each of these highly polysemous postpositions, a schematic network structure is provided which accommodates the variety of meanings they are able to convey. Each schematic network is further shown to be related to one, two or three prototypes, to which the non-prototypical variants are related through elaboration or extension. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.03gre 06 10.1075/cagral.6.03gre 67 94 28 Article 5 01 04 Connate roles in Nyulnyul Connate roles in Nyulnyul 01 04 non-nuclear grammatical relations within the core non-nuclear grammatical relations within the core 1 A01 01 JB code 851225193 William B. McGregor McGregor, William B. William B. McGregor 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/851225193 01 eng 03 00 This paper is concerned with the distinction between nuclear and non-nuclear grammatical relations in Nyulnyul, an effectively extinct language of Dampier Land, Western Australia. Drawing on research within Semiotic Grammar, it is proposed that a fundamental distinction needs to be drawn between experiential relations (Actor, Undergoer, Agent, and the like) and logical relations (circumstantial or adverbial elements). Although it is tempting to correlate nuclear and non-nuclear relations with the experiential-logical contrast, the relations are so unalike that it is misleading to place them on a single hierarchy. It is suggested instead that experiential grammatical relations can be meaningfully divided into nuclear and core types, and that this distinction provides a layered model for the clause as an experiential unit. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.04dra 06 10.1075/cagral.6.04dra 95 126 32 Article 6 01 04 German two-way prepositions and related phenomena German two-way prepositions and related phenomena 1 A01 01 JB code 361225194 Luk Draye Draye, Luk Luk Draye 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/361225194 01 eng 03 00 This paper examines German two-way prepositions governing both the accusative and the dative. It shows that sticking to concepts such as static location (DAT) vs change of location, movement or direction (ACC), as is still done in traditional grammars, falls short of being descriptively and explanatorily adequate. Although Paul’s (1920) dichotomy between emerging relationship (ACC) and existing relationship (DAT) constituted a major, though hardly noted improvement, it remains counterintuitive in that it characterizes ablative and perlative datives as expressing existing relationships. Shifting to a dichotomy between emerging relationship (ACC) and non-emerging relationship (DAT) permits to characterize the positively defined accusative as the marked option and the negatively defined dative as the default option, generalizing over all dative subclasses. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.05sme 06 10.1075/cagral.6.05sme 127 172 46 Article 7 01 04 Adpositional constructions of location and motion in Dutch Adpositional constructions of location and motion in Dutch 1 A01 01 JB code 846225195 Hans Smessaert Smessaert, Hans Hans Smessaert 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/846225195 2 A01 01 JB code 903225196 William Van Belle Van Belle, William William Van Belle 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/903225196 3 A01 01 JB code 66225197 Ingrid Van Canegem-Ardijns Van Canegem-Ardijns, Ingrid Ingrid Van Canegem-Ardijns 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/66225197 01 eng 03 00 In traditional grammar, constructions of location and motion are standardly considered as adverbial adjuncts, i.e. as constituents that do not belong to the nuclear or core elements of the clause. However, in Dutch, as in many other languages, there are different classes of verbal predicates which require the presence of a location or motion constituent in order to yield a grammatical clause. Since these obligatory constituents are manifestly part of the verbal valency frame, the authors call them location and motion objects. The combination of the criterion of (non-)optionality and that of substitutability with pronominal or adverbial elements leads to the tripartition between adjunct, object and predicate complement. This distinction is further shown to pattern with different word order restrictions. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.06mag 06 10.1075/cagral.6.06mag 173 216 44 Article 8 01 04 The distribution of adverbials in declarative sentences in French The distribution of adverbials in declarative sentences in French 1 A01 01 JB code 607225198 Ilse Magnus Magnus, Ilse Ilse Magnus 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/607225198 01 eng 03 00 This paper examines the distribution of different classes of adverbials within French declarative sentences, and links it to information structure. First, each position hosting an adverbial within a French declarative sentence is shown to be specialized for (a) specific type(s) of adverbial(s). Next, the relation with information structure is spelled out. The theoretical assumption is that adverbials can be classified as either focusable or not, and that this distinction also applies to the entire sentence: a French declarative sentence contains a non-focusable and a focusable section separated by the position for the negation particle. French appears to be characterized by a strong correlation between the (un)focusability of adverbials and the positions these adverbials can occupy. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.07del 06 10.1075/cagral.6.07del 217 318 102 Article 9 01 04 Passive Voice and Causal Roles in Spanish Passive Voice and Causal Roles in Spanish 1 A01 01 JB code 197225199 Nicole Delbecque Delbecque, Nicole Nicole Delbecque 07 https://benjamins.com/catalog/persons/197225199 01 eng 03 00 This paper focuses on oblique variation in the passive. It relies on insights on causal modeling to study the construction types available to express a passive or medio-passive meaning in Spanish. Oblique variation is argued to fulfill an important function in the profiling of the relation between agent and patient, causer and causee, affectant and affectee. The choice of the preposition is shown to function as a device for agenthood management. Based on distributional evidence, the systematic survey of representative corpus examples with the four most frequent prepositions (por ‘by, through’, en ‘in’, de ‘of, from’ and con ‘with’) sheds light on issues related to the prototypicity and nuclearity of participant relations in passive and medio-passive construals. 01 01 JB code cagral.6.08sub 06 10.1075/cagral.6.08sub 319 326 8 Article 10 01 04 Subject Index Subject Index 01 eng 01 01 JB code cagral.6.09aut 06 10.1075/cagral.6.09aut 327 328 2 Article 11 01 04 Name Index Name Index 01 eng 01 JB code JBENJAMINS John Benjamins Publishing Company 01 01 JB code JB John Benjamins Publishing Company 01 https://benjamins.com 02 https://benjamins.com/catalog/cagral.6 Amsterdam NL 00 John Benjamins Publishing Company Marketing Department / Karin Plijnaar, Pieter Lamers onix@benjamins.nl 04 01 00 20141217 C 2014 John Benjamins Publishing Company D 2014 John Benjamins Publishing Company 02 WORLD 13 15 9789027228161 WORLD 09 01 JB 3 John Benjamins e-Platform 03 https://jbe-platform.com 29 https://jbe-platform.com/content/books/9789027269249 21 01 00 Unqualified price 02 105.00 EUR 01 00 Unqualified price 02 88.00 GBP GB 01 00 Unqualified price 02 158.00 USD
