Free Adjuncts and Absolutes in English : Problems of Control and Interpretation EPUB
by Bernd Kortmann
Part of the Germanic Linguistics series
EPUB
Description
Free adjuncts and absolutes typically function as adverbial clauses which are not overtly specified for any particular adverbial relation.
The book is a non-formal, corpus based study of their current use in English.
Its particular focus is on a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of their semantic indeterminacy and the syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic factors that help resolve it.
