Nominalization in Latin

Beschreibung

This book investigates the properties of Latin 'verbal nouns', on the basis of data from a range of text types. Olga Spevak shows that verbal nouns, gerunds, gerundives, participles in participial clauses, and in part also infinitives, are competing expressions that form a system in which elements are partly overlapping and partly complementary.
