Product DescriptionThe overarching theme of this volume is the formal expression of the range and limits of ergativity. The book contains cutting-edge theoretical papers by top authors in the field, who also conduct original field work and bring new data to light. It contains articles that apply the most recent theoretical tools to the area of ergativity, and then explore the issues that emerge. Languages investigated in the text include Basque, Georgian, and Hindi.ReviewFrom the reviews:"...an important and valuable resource due to two factors: (i) its theoretical import concerning issues related to ergativity, and (ii) data from many endangered languages, often coming from the author's own fieldwork." (Patrycja Jablonska, LinguistList 19.2107)
