  • La grammaire casuelle is an early version (in French) of the material which made its way into (parts of) ch. 1 of Anderson (1977) – On case grammar. London: Croom Helm) – and takes up the various challenges facing a grammar in which semantic functional relations (rather than grammatical relations and/or the configurations that allegedly define them) have primacy in the lexicon and in the syntax. Sections 4 & 5 deal with 'some problems for case grammar' as brought up in the early 1970s in reponse to the proposals in Fillmore's Case for case, discussing, in particular, the notorious 'locative alternation' (of ... spray paint on the wall vs. ... spray the wall with paint fame). Section 6 is concerned with matters of subcategorisation and dependency and section 7 explores the analysis of 'double object'/'ditransitive' constructions of Anderson (1973).
