The role of structural case in syntax is arguably one of the most
controversial topics in syntactic theory with important
implications for semantic theory. This book focuses on some of the
most puzzling case marking patterns in the Slavic languages and
ties these patterns to different types of aspectual phenomena,
showing that there is after all a pattern in the seeming chaos of
case in the Slavic languages.
Kylie Richardson addresses links between the case marking on
objects and the event structure of a verb phrase in Belarusian,
Russian, Ukrainian, Czech, Slovak, Polish, and
Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian and also shows that the links between case
and aspect in the Slavic languages belong to a much larger pattern
found in language in general. She also focuses on links between
case and grammatical aspect in depictive, predicative participle,
and copular constructions in the East Slavic languages.
The book will appeal to scholars and advanced students of aspect,
and to all Slavicists.
