The Development of Latin Clause Structure: A Study of the Extended Verb Phrase - Oxford Studies in Diachronic and Historical Linguistics
Danckaert, Lieven (Researcher, Researcher, CNRS and University of Lille 3)
This book examines Latin word order patterns, in particular the relative ordering of i) lexical verbs and direct objects and ii) auxiliaries and non-finite verbs. Lieven Danckaert offers a corpus-based description of these alternations and demonstrates that Latin is a fully configurational language, contrary to received wisdom.
