The data-rich papers in this first-ever volume on EPCs document their typological variability, explore diachronic reasons for variations, and investigate their functions and theoretical ramifications. EPCs code the possessor as a core grammatical relation of the verb and in a constituent separate from that which contains the possessed item. Though EPCs express possession, they do so without the necessary involvement of a possessive predicate such as "have" or "own"Typological studies in language ;v. 39.Grammar, Comparative and generalPossessivesGrammar, Comparative and generalPossessives.415Payne Doris L.1952-1635576Barshi Immanuel863145MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910812457303321External Possession4002316UNINA
