Ebook: Forms and Functions, Vol. 1: Reflexives

This text examines the forms and functions of reflexives. The picture that emerges from the studies in the volume indicates a certain degree of convergence of results, even when analyses have been conducted from different theoretical perspectives and had different goals. The papers do not intend to be the final statements on the subject matter. They aim to offer a variety of approaches broad enough to be of interest for linguists working on the issues of grammatical relations, thematic relations, anaphora and coreferentiality, lexical and grammatical categories, lexicalization, diachronic category changes and grammaticalization in general.
