Opis

The book series Beihefte zur Zeitschrift fur romanische Philologie, founded by Gustav Grober in 1905, is among the most renowned publications in Romance Studies. It covers the entire field of Romance linguistics, including the national languages as well as the lesser studied Romance languages. The editors welcome submissions of high-quality monographs and collected volumes on all areas of linguistic research, on medieval literature and on textual criticism. The publication languages of the series are French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Romanian as well as German and English. Each collected volume should be as uniform as possible in its contents and in the choice of languages.

Verb-particle constructions are not only present in Germanic languages, but they are also found in Romance ones, particularly in some scarcely regulated varieties, such as old languages, dialects and substandard varieties. In this book a corpus of six hundreds of verbs+locative, taken from a Northern-Italian variety, is given and analyzed. The comparison with apparently analogous Germanic verb-particle constructions shows that the Romance ones are the result of an independent, gradual development, requiring ? in its final phase ? the expression of space (direction) and aspect (result) markers in the verb inflection.
