PhD Thesis
Title
(Transitive Passive and Impersonal Constructions in Spanish)
Abstract
In addition to developing a statistical analysis of the data, a qualitative study was also undertaken based on a detailed event typology. By means of corpus analysis it was found that there is a strong tendency to codify telic events in a passive way (achievements and completed actions), whereas they are not normally codified with this type of structure in atelic events (activities). It was also found that it is not enough to describe the differences between pronominal and participle passives in terms of existence/non-existence of generic events. In passive structures each auxiliary imposes its own eventive restrictions in the selection of types of events.
In terms of distribution by media, a much higher density of participle passives was observed in the press than on the radio and the television. The density of pronominal impersonal and passive constructions is higher in oral than in written media.
