Opis

This handbook provides a comprehensive account of research on case and the morphological and syntactic phenomena associated with it. Scholars from all over the world provide overviews of theoretical, typological, diachronic, and psycholinguistic research and assess cross-linguistic work on case and case-systems.

Recenzje

The Oxford Handbook of Case (despite occasional, mainly technical, flaws) measures up to the most exacting standards and could serve in many respects as a model for handbooks of this sort. It will undoubtedly prove an invaluable resource not only to professional linguists but particularly to a very wide circle of students.
