About Split Possession: An Areal-linguistic Study Of The Alienability Correlation And Related Phenomena In The Languages Of Europe


This book is a functional-typological study of possession splits in European languages. It shows that genetically and structurally diverse languages such as Icelandic, Welsh, and Maltese display possessive systems which are sensitive to semantically based distinctions reminiscent of the alienability correlation. . . .
