Multiple preverbation in Homeric Greek: A typological insight
This paper analyses the system of multiple affixation of spatial preverbs in Homeric Greek in a typological perspective, based on Talmy’s (2000) typology of Motion event, on the work done within the Trajectoire Project (CNRS, TUL), and work on (multiple) affixation systems in some Amerindian languag...

| Итог: | This paper analyses the system of multiple affixation of spatial preverbs in Homeric Greek in a typological perspective, based on Talmy’s (2000) typology of Motion event, on the work done within the Trajectoire Project (CNRS, TUL), and work on (multiple) affixation systems in some Amerindian languages (Craig & Hale 1988; Craig 1993; Grinevald 2003). It details the existence in Homeric Greek of a set of relational preverbs functionally distinct from the more widely-known “satellite” preverbs, and the existence of interesting semantic affix-order constraints on their multiple affixation on the verb stem. Throughout, the analysis focuses on the motivated and function-driven interconnection between the morphosyntactic patterning and the semantic constraints affecting this system. |
