  • On the Subjectless “Pseudo-Passive” in Standard Dutch and the Semantics of Background Agents

    Robert S Kirsner•CHAPTER•Subject and Topic•2026

    In a typical Dutch sentence such as 1, the so-called “agent of the action” is referred to with a definite nounphrase which traditionally is both “grammatical subject” (with which the verb “agrees in person and number”) and “topic”—i.e., old information, hence unstressed and in initial position: 1. De jongens fluiten the boys whistle “The boys whistle/are whistling.”

    Pio Baroja (1872-1956) and Camilo Jose Cela (b. 1916) are both post-war novelists. The former devoted himself to expressing the abulic state of mind of his nation, particularly of the Spaniards of the nether regions of Madrid, following the SpanishAmerican War; the latter is intent on portraying the seemingly senseless negativism of his people following the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939).
