Whereas there are a number of studies devoted to the variable placement of modifiers, The Noun Phrase in Classical Latin Prose proposes an entirely new approach: a discussion of the semantic and syntactic properties of both nouns and modifiers. Using recent insights in general linguistics, it argues that not only pragmatic factors but also semantic factors (whether we are dealing with an inherent property, the author’s assessment, or a further specification of a referent) are responsible for the internal ordering of Latin noun phrases. Additionally, this book discusses prepositional phrases functioning as modifiers, and appositions, which have received little attention in the literature.Amsterdam studies in classical philology ;v. 21.Latin languageNoun phraseElectronic books.Latin languageNoun phrase.475/.54Spevak Olga522740MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453443103321Noun phrase in classical Latin prose1521237UNINA
