The volume brings together the papers read at the international
conference on Romance Objects organized by the Linguistics
Department of the Roma Tre University. It is characterized by a
striking uniformity of approach, which is functional, and of
methodology. The various case studies regarding the object focus on
the syntax/semantics and syntax/pragmatics interfaces. The common
denominator of the ten enquiries is the identification of the
object category, the DO in particular, in Romance languages; at the
same time some of the contributors relate the specific topic to
more general questions of linguistic typology. Some of the essays
are based on the analysis of data from a corpus and present a
diachronic picture of the evolution of the specific topic
investigated. Thus this volume is addressed not only to scholars
interested in the Romance languages but also all those who study
the object category in a cross-linguistic perspective. Michela
