Icelandic Nominalizations and Allosemy

Beschreibung

This book provides a detailed description of Icelandic nominalizations, processes through which verbs are turned into nouns. Jim Wood shows that the analysis of these constructions has broad implications for our understanding of argument structure and the syntax-semantics interface.
