Publisher's Synopsis

The volume addresses the constructional variability with transitive and causative verbs from the point of view of their respective action and motion patterns. Drawing on the theoretical advances registered in cognitive approaches to language, the papers adduce empirical evidence from various languages to refine or adjust existing analyses of transitivity, causation and motion.
