Context and the Lexicon in the Development of Russian Aspect (UC Publications in Linguistics) Unknown - 1997

by Bermel, Neil


From the publisher

This study advances a new approach to the history of Russian aspect, integrating recent work on aspectology with contemporary theories of language changes and development. Using data from five Old Russian texts, the author traces the development of the aspectual opposition from its early lexical roots to the sixteenth century, when contextual and discourse concerns came to the fore.
