    The present work expands the empirical base of Guardiano & Stavrou 2014 (henceforth G&S) and discusses the problems that arise Yet, up to our current knowledge, no significant dissimilarity has emerged2 so far with respect to the properties explored here. from the newly collected data concerning patterns of adjectival modification in the nominal structure of the minority variety of Greek The empirical information was collected from on-purpose interviews with native speakers, and spoken in Southern Calabria (henceforth Bovese), which we compare to the other Greek variety (henceforth Grico), some Romance integrated, when needed, with evidence provided in the literature. dialects spoken in Southern Italy and Standard Greek

    I first presented these comments at the 44th Annual Convention of the Association for Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Studies (New Orleans, November 2012), as part of a roundtable discussion that honored Theofanis G. Stavrou’s fifty years of service to Mediterranean, Slavic, and Eastern Orthodox Studies. With a few alterations and updates, these words stand as an appropriate conclusion to this volume of essays exploring the main topical interests—Eastern Orthodox Church history, Modern Greek literature, Russian history and culture, the history of Cyprus, and several other areas—in the truly outstanding scholarly career of Theo Stavrou

    Possessive clitics in the DP: Doubling or dislocation?

    No full text
    This paper contributes to the literature on possessor doubling by looking at the co-occurrence of a possessive DP and a possessive clitic inside the Nominal Expression (NE). It concentrates on Bulgarian and Greek, which are the only Balkan languages to display productive use of clitic possessors in the NE. Despite appearances, in Greek and in Bulgarian NEs there are no cases of what in the clausal domain is standardly referred to as “clitic doubling”. This is prima facie an unexpected situation, given that both languages instantiate the two crucial properties that are at stake here: clitic doubling inside the clausal domain, and possessive clitics (genitive in Greek and dative in Bulgarian) inside the nominal domain. This ‘asymmetry’ calls for an explanation and this is what we attempt here. What we find with possessors in Bulgarian and Greek is what corresponds to clitic (left/right) dislocation. It turns out that possessor dislocation is allowed inside NEs as well as in clauses in Bulgarian, while in Greek it is only allowed in the clausal domain. This will be claimed to be the basic difference between the two languages and this difference will be reduced to the different way the DP splits in each language in order to host discourse-relevant features. Apparent doubling with strong possessive pronouns in Greek is treated as a separate phenomenon tentatively accounted for in terms of the different properties of strong pronouns in each language
